About the event
When prison warden Melissa (Hafsia Herzi) is transferred to Corsica, she finds the relaxed atmosphere of her new workplace contrasts sharply with the aggressive inhabitants of the neighbourhood where she now lives with her partner Djibril (Moussa Mansaly). Melissa’s integration is facilitated by Saveriu (Louis Memmi), a young inmate who places her under his protection. But everything comes at a price, and once freed, Saveriu expects her help in return. Stéphane Demoustier’s ingeniously plotted thriller, which plays out over two interconnected timelines, is anchored by a stunning central performances from Hafsia Herzi.
