Call My Agent's Laure Calamy stars as mother of two, Julie is making ends meet, getting by as the head chambermaid of a five-star hotel in Paris, with only sporadic alimony payments from her ex-husband. Each meticulously-planned day starts before sunrise, preparing the kids for school and undertaking a long commute to work. But when a national railway strike breaks out Julie's routine is thrown into chaos, pushing her into a frenetic race against time that threatens everything she's worked so hard for.

...parts domestic drama about a put-upon single mother, and parts like a tense thriller. It really is an unusual blend and it makes for a film that is both unique and memorable.

One of the most relevant and frightening thrillers of the year. A breathless masterclass in execution, this is cinema at its finest.
