Synopsis
In the still of the night, three lives are about to cross… a woman abandoned, a stranger awaiting his chance, and a best-selling author who imagines the thriller of the year. Deceptively layered and intriguingly misleading, this highly anticipated new film from Oscar-winning director Claude Lelouch (A MAN AND A WOMAN) stars Dominique Pinon and Fanny Ardant as an unlikely pair caught up in a game with high stakes — and deadly consequences.

Reviews
It’s the smartest and best suspense movie you’re likely to see for a while. |
The movie is more entertaining than it is logical; its narrative leaps are sometimes ahead of our ability to believe them. But as the compellingly enigmatic Pierre, Pinon keeps us rapt. | The twists and convolutions of the film’s beginning and end enable a middle that is dizzying domestic comedy. |
