Two Days, One Night


Watch Trailer
“★★★★! It’s a reflection of the particular genius of the Dardennes and the mesmerizing personal power of leading lady Marion Cotillard that TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT winds up possessing such inexorable power…As a testament to connection, service, sacrifice and self-worth, it’s a soaring, heart-rending hymn. – Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post

Sandra (Marion Cotillard, who received an Academy Award nomination for her role) has just been released from the hospital to find that she no longer has a job. According to management, the only way Sandra can hope to regain her position at the factory is to convince her co-workers to sacrifice their much-needed yearly bonuses. Now, over the course of one weekend, Sandra must confront each co-worker individually in order to win a majority of their votes before time runs out. With TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT, two-time Cannes Palme D’Or winners Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne have turned a relevant social inquiry into a powerful statement on community solidarity, once again delivering a film that is simple on the surface but alive with both compassion and wisdom.
