Olivia Bonamy

A young couple lead a happy, quiet life in the countryside. But little do they know they're being surrounded. When night falls, the couple will come face to face with Them. They are everywhere, even in their home. Who are they? What do they want? The answers will take them to the very limits of fear itself. French language film with English subtitles.

This languorous, beguiling adaptation – where, again, Akerman resets our sense of time – probes possessive love. A wealthy young man obsesses over his girlfriend. But who is the captor asks Akerman, who considered a person could be a cage as much as a room.

Two outcasts are drawn together by crime and passion in this early tour de force from Jacques Audiard, a noir thriller of unique depth and emotion. Emmanuelle Devos stars as an unappreciated, hard-of-hearing employee whose lonely life gets a jolt of excitement when she hires a new assistant (Vincent Cassel), an ex-con who soon enlists her—and her lip-reading ability—in a risky scheme.
