Bravely managing her late husband's shipping business; Louise (Catherine Deneuve) also takes care of her disabled daughter Julia (Diane Kruger). After covering up Julia's accidental murder of her drug-dealing boyfriend, Louise is blackmailed by his best friend Ben (Nekfeu), a nice guy turned delinquent in a world of crime and violence. If he doesn't pay off a dangerous mobster, Ben will be killed. Louise is his only hope. Initially hostile, Louise gets to know Ben and is startled to find that they have more in common than either would expect. Bonds begin to form between him and the two women, especially Louise, who feels odd fascination and respect for her blackmailer. But as their connection deepens and danger gets closer, the line between fear and protection starts to fade. A dark, gripping spiral of violence and attachment. (Cinemax)

It doesn’t happen as often as it used to. The list of old French movies I haven’t seen yet is shortening and it doesn’t happen as often with the new French flicks. I should have known this would be worth it just from the cast of this one, which features the best of the actresses – Catherine Deneuve and Diane Kruger. Mother and daughter started a rollercoaster of events which is so hard to untangle from. It wasn’t easy in this case and after watching it I can say that when it comes to a storyline, no French film captivated me like this in a long time. The French did it again and I am glad I could have been a part of it. It’s one of the movies where Cinemax really surprised me and a movie that everybody should know about.
