Ce qui restera de ce film est un état de SIDÉRATION dans l’issue de cette histoire vraie. Celle d’une femme qui dérange. Un thriller dont on connaît l’issue si on a suivi « l’affaire » entre 2012 et 2018 ce qui n’était pas mon cas. (je ne dis rien de plus pour éviter le spoil). La réalisation est sympa, sans plus. Les acteurs sont bons. Isabelle Hupert dans son emploi. À voir pour l’histoire qui je le répète est amèrement fascinante. Un bon 7.
