This scheme of a couple of tourists stopping somewhere, in a gas station, and when the wife disappears, is not new. Remember Jonathan Mostow's BREAKDOWN, Frank Mancuso's RIF, or the US TV movie DYING ROOM ONLY. But this one is really disturbing, unforgettable, really painful. I hesitate to reveal the whole plot, I want to preserve the suspense and not spoil the whole movie. But believe me, it's a hell of a film. I must be seen at all costs, a must see, I don't understand that it is not more widely known. Bernard Pierre Donnadieu outstanding in a very difficult role. If you are lucky enough not to have seen it yet, don't hesitate, go, go go.
