7What people say
Watching it with a headphone feels more intimate and quite thrilling but the twist after twist felt overlapping each other and at the point I stopped trying to remember the ongoing problem that the protagonist is trying to solve. I didn't expect to hear Clara Ysé's Douce. It sort of compensates this film
