Claire Denis (Beau Travail, High Life) directs Margaret Qualley (Once Upon A Time In Hollywood), Benny Safdie (Licorice Pizza) and Joe Alwyn (The Favourite) in a sexually charged thriller set in present-day Nicaragua. Stranded in Central America and constantly under the watchful eye of local police and the military, American journalist Trish (Qualley) falls for an enigmatic Englishman (Alwyn) who might offer a method of escape.

Recalling the moral potboilers of Graham Greene, Denis' thriller - based on Denis Johnson's novel - is set in an underworld of political hostiles, corporate espionage and romantic salvation.
