Synopsis

Judith leads a double life with two families: raising a daughter with one partner in Switzerland, and another two sons in France. With a decision needing to be made on which life she wants to choose, Judith decides to run away from it all while the situation spirals out of control.

Our take

In this taut psychological thriller, which seduces with its Hitchcockian intrigue and Chabrolian class critique, Virginie Efira enthralls with her perilous balancing act between multiple identities. Mysterious yet gripping, this portrait of a woman under the influence scales the limits of desire.
