In the charged atmosphere of a psychiatric institution, a dangerous game of psychological seduction begins in this gripping drama. Carice van Houten delivers a captivating performance as Nicky, a seasoned and manipulative therapist whose professional detachment shatters when she meets Idris, a charismatic new patient convicted of a violent crime, played with intense magnetism by Marwan Kenzari. As Nicky becomes increasingly obsessed with unraveling Idris’s mind, the lines between therapist and subject, control and desire, begin to blur perilously. Directed by Halina Reijn, the film masterfully crafts a tense, erotic thriller where every interaction is a calculated power play. The central conflict spirals as Nicky’s colleagues, including a concerned supervisor portrayed by Tamar van den Dop, grow wary of her unorthodox and risky methods. Exploring the darkest corners of human instinct and attraction, the story builds a suffocating atmosphere of suspense, questioning who is truly analyzing whom and what secrets lie buried beneath a facade of clinical professionalism.
