Events over the course of one traumatic night in Paris unfold in reverse-chronological order as the beautiful Alex is brutally raped and beaten by a stranger in the underpass. Her boyfriend and ex-lover take matters into their own hands and subsequently seek revenge upon the assailant. A simultaneously beautiful and terrible examination of the destructive nature of cause and effect, and how time destroys everything.

I watched all French films on my way to Cannes,” Tesfaye says, starting with Gaspar Noe’s Irreversible. “Whenever I travel to a foreign country I make a point to watch films from there."

"We had rehearsals for a few weeks before [shooting] where we all went around the table and talked about our experiences related to the story. It was an amazing way to get to know each other and all remind ourselves of what story we were telling together. Throughout the shoot [director Mike Nichols] would have weekly screenings for us every weekend of double features. The most disturbing one I remember was a double feature of Brief Encounter and Irreversible. It would be a lineup like that every weekend."
