Les mains sales

About This Movie

So, Les mains sales is quite a gripping piece. It’s set in this lavish Parisian apartment, which instantly gives it a sort of claustrophobic elegance. You’ve got Laure, who’s cleaning up for the Saudi royal family, and then bam, things take a twist with these unknown men breaking in. The tension is almost palpable—she and her boss are stuck in this storeroom, and the silence between them is so thick you could cut it with a knife. It really dives into themes of power dynamics and vulnerability. The performances are understated but effectively convey the mounting dread. The pacing is tight; you feel the weight of each moment. Not a lot of flashy effects here, just raw emotion and stark realism that lingers long after the credits roll.
