The Lodger
2021, French. Directed by Baptiste Drapeau.
Don't dig up the ghosts of the past.
Julie just started university in Bordeaux. She moves into the house of Elizabeth, an old widow who lends her a room in exchange for her help with daily chores. There’s one condition: acting as if Victor, Elizabeth’s dead husband, was still alive. But soon, Julie starts feeling his presence… and an inescapable and dangerous love triangle begins.
