A powerhouse performance from Isabelle Huppert leads this devastating psychological thriller from Paul Verhoeven, rich with wholly unexpected moments of black humour and twisted menace.

Michèle (Huppert) has overcome a turbulent childhood to become head of a successful video game company, and brings the same ruthless attitude to her personal life – juggling numerous romantic entanglements and the endless foibles of her naïve son (Jonas Bloquet). A brutal attack in her home by an unknown assailant will change her life forever – and his. Not for the faint hearted.

Exhilarating and multi-layered, the film recalls the ambience of Hitchcock, De Palma and Polanski, with a thrilling cerebral edge.
