Elie Wajeman's third film draws viewers to a back-seat position as the camera follows a Parisian doctor on call after dark to heal drug addicts on comedowns and lonely souls in the throes of panic attacks. Vincent Macaigne was everywhere this year in the French Selection line-up, and is magnificent as this 'patron saint of the broken', whose break-neck manoeuvres behind the wheel remind us of Harvey Keitel in Abel Ferrara's Bad Lieutenant.
