French actress Laure Calamy – familiar to audiences from Netflix’s Call My Agent – gives an exceptional performance in this pulse-pounding thriller.

A frazzled mother of two, Julie scrapes by on her job as senior maid at a posh Paris hotel and sporadic alimony payments from her ex. Up at sunrise to prep her kids for school before a long commute, her life is a constant, precarious balancing act in which not one moment can be wasted. So, when an interview for a better job – one that might just haul her out of a cycle of debt – coincides with a paralysing transport strike, it’s a nightmare of epic proportions that pushes her into a frenetic race against time.

“It’s a propulsively intense piece of filmmaking – at times a bit like watching a highwire chainsaw juggling act about to go horribly and catastrophically wrong.” Wendy Ide, Variety
