SLEEPLESS NIGHT

Nuit Blanche

Director Frédéric Jardin / 2011 / France/Belgium/Luxembourg

"Ultra-intense… Jardin might've taken his cue from an illegal stimulant, so speedy is the pace from the get-go." - Variety

Vincent appears to be a committed family man, but scratch the surface and there's a darker side to this cop's life. He has a huge quantity of stolen cocaine, which has landed him in a web of shady dealings and shadier characters. Over the course of one relentless night in a sprawling club, he must return the stash and save his son from murderous kidnappers.

This taut thriller from Frédéric Jardin made waves on the festival circuit - so much so that there is already an American remake in the works - and with the film's dizzying cinematography, magnetic performances and never-let-up pace it's set to enthral audiences worldwide.

“The mind reels thinking just how damn well this is executed.” - Twitch
