Irreversible

A woman’s lover and her ex-boyfriend take justice into their own hands after she becomes the victim of a rapist. Because some acts can’t be undone. Because man is an animal. Because the desire for vengeance is a natural impulse. Because most crimes remain unpunished.

“Irreversible” is a gripping French film directed by Gaspar Noé. The story unfolds in a nonlinear narrative, following the intense events that transpire after a woman is brutally assaulted, leading her partner and ex-boyfriend on a harrowing journey of revenge. The film’s raw and unflinching portrayal of violence and its consequences is both disturbing and thought-provoking.
