Extremely bloody rape and revenge French thriller which is notable for its promise to subvert the genre. Sadly, it doesn't quite live up to its ambition and frankly some aspects were so unrealistic as to almost pull me out of the story. But it does have some truly stunning cinematography and a strangely 70s vibe in some of the music and shot choices - I had a few Phase IV type flashbacks.
But Lutz is the real star here, and I hope to see her in roles which give her the chance to demonstrate greater range.
Verdict: Lead and cinematography promise more than is delivered.
