Trailer
A group of French youngsters execute attacks in Paris. Multiracial, they expose a cross-section of contemporary French society. The adrenaline gives way to a suspension in time, when the terrorists hide in an empty department store. The film began to be thought of decades before the terrorist attacks to Paris in November 2015, taking the form of a horrifying omen. Toronto 2016.
