That evening, Mady, a student by day and a locksmith by night, sees his life turned upside down when he opens the wrong door and accidentally becomes an accomplice in a case of organized crime. In the heart of a city in turmoil, Mady has only one night to get out of trouble and track down Claire, the woman who betrayed his trust.
The countdown is on...
A high-octane thriller that fully embraces the tropes of the genre, Night Call is also a great political film. Addressing contemporary issues of representation, the action takes place in a Brussels in turmoil, against the backdrop of Black Lives Matter.
