Sandra is stuck in a tumultuous relationship with a fallen golden boy addicted to very particular sex games. She takes advantage of a contract on his head to grab his money and flee to Hong Kong. But she falls into a trap… The last installment of an international trilogy is this thriller whose audacious camera movements are by turns sensual and brutal, fluid and frenetic. This brilliant osmosis by one of the heirs of the New Wave, an avid fan of the Hong Kong action cinema, is a visual enchantment transcended by the grace of Asia Argento and the elegiac compositions of Brian Eno.
