Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.You know that moment when you see someone being threatened late at night and you wonder if you should do something?
According to Fred Cavayé's blistering Parisian thriller, you should leave well alone. The events that befall nursing aide Gilles Lellouche could do for altruism what Jaws did for swimming. Lellouche steps in when patient Roschdy Zem is attacked; then, after a bit of ego-pumped boasting, his pregnant wife (Elena Anaya) is kidnapped. The ensuing Sturm und Drang abandons plausibility for pace, as Lellouche sprints through a sinew-tight 80 minutes of Gallic-grey amorality. Subtle and clever it isn't, but it is bloody exciting.
