We follow 24 hours in the life of a being moving from life to life like a cold and solitary assassin moving from hit to hit. In each of these interwoven lives, the being possesses an entirely distinct identity: sometimes a man, sometimes a woman, sometimes youthful, sometimes old. By turns murderer, beggar, company chairman, monstrous creature, worker, family man.

By the time this film's over, you're shaken, intrigued and reminded that art doesn't need to add up to be entrancing.

Audiences who care about character and plot are liable to take the exit to a movie that makes sense.

fresh:
All this random action, Carax suggests, is for some vast, abstract audience anxious to lose itself in imagined narratives.
