About Aux frontières de la nuit
For twenty-four hours, Geneva becomes the living backdrop for a contemporary drama: by day, a place where life is good; by night, a refuge for the marginalized. Five characters will meet there, connected by the night shift of a pair of cops. Hans, a police officer nearing the end of his career and worn down by life, tries his hand at compassion, while Dan, his young partner, struggles between prejudice and discovering the other.
Directed by Nasser Bakhti, Aux frontières de la nuit leans on a strong ensemble — Martin Huber, Damanta Diarra, Hicham Alhayat — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2006.
