After Claire Dennis’ L’intrus, Klotz’s La blessure is the second film inspired by Jean-Luc Nancy’s autobiographical book L’intrus.
Probing the cruel treatment faced by African immigrants the minute they set foot in France, Nicolas Klotz’s revelatory drama is intimately informed by years-long research. Like the bodily wound at the heart of the plot, postcolonial displacement becomes the societal gash that can never be healed.
