Elle m'a sauvée (2022)
Threatened and beaten by her ex-husband for many months, Julie Douib, 34, mother of two young children, had gone to file a complaint many times. On March 3, 2019, Julie was shot by her ex-partner in L'île Rousse in Haute-Corse. On the night of 16 to 17 April 2018, after several years of domestic violence, Laura Rapp finally found the courage to file a complaint: her spouse tried to strangle her in front of their two-year-old daughter. After a year of pre-trial detention for attempted homicide, her ex-spouse is released pending trial.

Disturbing yet enthralling
Charming and brutal
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
