Synopsis

A necessary and shocking film that will leave you breathless.

On her way home from a party, a young woman named Alex is brutally raped and beaten by a bloodthirsty pervert nicknamed “le Ténia”. Mad with rage, her boyfriend Marcus, helped by his friend Pierre (who is also Alex’s ex-boyfriend), plunges into a spiral of violence with one obsession: to revenge.

The film finds the right balance between the different phases of its story, its narrative structure and its alternately nervous, captivating and even sensual direction. Monica Bellucci, Vincent Cassel and Albert Dupontel throw themselves wholeheartedly into this radical adventure, and are absolutely stunning.

The 20H30 session is proposed in its final version ” version intégrale “.
