FULL TIME

SYNOPSIS

We find Julie in a luxurious hotel in Paris, where she’s swiftly and meticulously tidying up apartments where a single night probably costs more than she earns for keeping them flawless. The film, directed by Eric Gravel, places Julie in the moment of a national public transport strike and a job interview to which she had been invited. Her race with time begins and there lies the entire plot: like in great action movies, this drama is loaded with tempo that underlines all the paradoxical situations one can find themselves in – how do we secure something for ourselves if we constantly have to stay within our comfort zone in order to survive?
