Olivier Perrier

Two outcasts are drawn together by crime and passion in this early tour de force from Jacques Audiard, a noir thriller of unique depth and emotion. Emmanuelle Devos stars as an unappreciated, hard-of-hearing employee whose lonely life gets a jolt of excitement when she hires a new assistant (Vincent Cassel), an ex-con who soon enlists her—and her lip-reading ability—in a risky scheme.

One woman's journey of rebirth is chronicled in this drama, starring legendary actor Bruno Ganz ("Wings of Desire"). Gracieuse is a lost woman, troubled by the horse racing life, who leaves it behind. When she meets legendary horse trainer Franz Mann, though, Grace finds a horse that brings love alive - and the hopes of racing glory.
