Mady (Jonathan Feltre) just can’t catch a break. A graduate student who moonlights as a locksmith in Brussels, he’s tricked by a beautiful stranger named Claire (Natacha Krief) to unlock an empty apartment so she can grab a bag. She disappears, leaving Mady to answer to mobster Yannick (Romain Duris), whose bag Claire took. Did we mention that it’s full of cash and Yannick thinks Mady is in cahoots with Claire to rip him off?
Mady buys enough time to find Claire and get the cash back to Yannick, but Brussels is locked down due to a rowdy Black Lives Matter protest and one of Yannick’s henchmen, Theo (Jonas Bloquet), is secretly involved with Claire. It’s not Mady’s night, and if things don’t go his way, it could be his last.
Night Call is a terrific action-thriller that uses a topical event — the Black Lives Matter movement — to enrich its already superb narrative. It matters that Mady is Black, so he can’t quite move around in the city during that night like others can. The movie unveils one surprise after another, but it never feels cheap or superficial. Night Call is one of 2025’s best movies that most people don’t know about, so check it out now that it’s on Hulu.
