Femme is a brilliantly tense and gripping thriller that will truly have you on the edge of your seat.
It follows drag performer Jules who seeks a unique sort of revenge on the perpetrator of a homophobic attach against him. It's a thoroughly unique and engaging and superbly constructed plot that keeps pace and momentum throughout. It really feels like anything could happen at any moment which gives the film such a great energy.
The greatest thing about this film though is the two lead performances from Nathan Stewart-Jarrett and George McKay. They are both exquisite and bring such intriguing complexity to each of their characters. The dynamic between them is so hard to capture but they both do it so well. The performance from McKay is particularly strong as he cultivates this anything could happen tone through his erratic portrayal of the character.
Aside from the brilliant performances and plot, the tone and style of the film are great and make for a rich and engaging film.
Femme is a powerful, punchy, and unique piece of cinema that will have you hooked from start to finish.
