Through the Night

"Strong central performances and confident handling of an evergreen subject."

"But Through the Night is not Dary’s journey to redemption or atonement, nor indeed Aly’s to forgiveness or acceptance [...]. It is more complicated, nuanced, messy and real than that."

"An extraordinary debut film."

"[The film] must be considered one of the year's best readings on violence in the narrative.”

"This paradox — of suffering a crime and then traveling a treacherous path to prove it — makes up the heart of Through the Night."

"Delphine Girard has conceived Quitter la nuit as a story of reconstruction, with an element of light.”

"Through the Night succeeds in generating suspense and psychological depth, making it a promising start to Girard’s directorial career.”

"Baetens’ is just one in a plethora of strong performances, as the whole cast delivers stellar work.''

''A strong adult drama about a difficult subject, handled with care and diplomacy and strong direction.''
