CHRYSALIS

In a grey Paris, circa 2020, Police Lieutenant David Hoffman (played by Albert Dupontel, Irréversible) returns to the line of duty to hunt down a dangerous smuggler behind a series of murders, including his own wife's. The investigation leads him to a state-of-the-art clinic, run by Professor Brügen (Marthe Keller) and a dangerous machine that is capable of memory and identity manipulation

An intense, adrenalin-fueled joyride that references Blade Runner, A Clockwork Orange, Until The End of the World and Minority Report, Julien Leclercq's visually stunning debut delivers a potent cocktail of future-shock noir with stiff shots of intense, adrenaline-fuelled action. Indeed, this high-octane thriller announces Leclercq as a hot new talent to watch. Hollywood is calling.
