Strangers by Night

Two strangers, Aymeric and Nathalie, meet by chance in a crowded Paris metro train. After a public argument sparked by a shove, their friction quickly turns into mutual attraction. The pair spends the night together, sharing intimate conversations and an encounter in a photo booth while exploring the city. As dawn approaches, they face the inevitability of parting ways, though the nature of their connection suggests a deeper or unexpected link.

The movie stars Alex Lutz and Karin Viard in the lead roles, with supporting performances by Jérôme Pouly and Noémie de Lattre. A joint production between Belgium and France, the film was released in July 2023.
