Sean Penn saves lives in a shattering thriller about the deadly darkness of a New York night.

2023, Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire

United States
118 minutes, English with Russian subtitles

Starring: Sean Penn, Tye Sheridan, Mike Tyson, Katherine Waterston

Is there a nobler job than saving those whose lives hang on a thread? Probably not, believes young paramedic Cross. His partner, however, has no illusions: providing first aid to gunshot and overdose victims is a dirty and sometimes dangerous business. As the night falls over Brooklyn, Cross becomes more and more convinced that his colleague is right.

This is a stark, pitch-black, violent and gruesome waking nightmare of a story.

— Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times

The director masterfully builds up tension until the film picks up a dizzying pace—and the feeling doesn’t let go long after the end of the final credits.
