Magnet Releasing debuted the official trailer for Kompromat, the French thriller starring Gilles Lellouche, Joanna Kulig, Mikhaïl Gorevoï, Aleksey Gorbunov, Elisa Lasowski, Danila Vorobyev, Judith Henry, Igor Jijikine, Pierre Hancisse and Mikhail Safronov.
Directed by Jérome Salle, Kompromat will be released in theaters and on demand on January 27, 2023.
Based on incredible true events, Jérome Salle’s gripping new espionage thriller depicts the remarkable story of a French public servant who unwittingly finds himself in conflict with one of the modern era’s most powerful and dangerous forces: Russia’s FSB.
Gilles Lellouche stars as Mathieu, a gregarious and dedicated diplomat who accepts a posting to Irkutsk as the head of Siberia’s Alliance Francaise. He hopes the change will be good for his family and struggling marriage, but before long Mathieu’s staging of cultural events and support of artistic expression sees him fall afoul of local authorities. Accused of a terrible crime, he soon realizes someone has fabricated a case with Russia’s Federal Security Service – he has been framed. Arrested, imprisoned and isolated, Mathieu has nowhere to turn. Defending himself is impossible, the French authorities are helpless – it seems he has no choice: to try and escape.
