Kim escapes North Korea to travel 10,000 miles to France to see Marie, a French journalist he briefly met in North Korea. But on his way to Marie's place in the Parisian suburbs, he gets lost. It is night and it is freezing cold. Director Yoann Jean-Charles compresses his story about Kim into one icy night. NUIT DE GRÈVE (Strike Night) was released in December 17 by the Saint-André des Arts cinema in Paris, famous for discovering first works by still unknown directors (Jim Jarmush, Leos Carax, Jean Eustache). Yoann Jean-Charles' Paris is a city of suburbs, cold, and darkness. The film's punk aesthetic is supported by the editing of Thibault Saksik (L'Accident) and driven by the soundtrack of Louis De Aguiar.
