Subway
A seductive fable
Directed by Luc Besson
Produced by Gaumont, Les Films du Loup
A stylish, surreal thriller that treats the Paris Metro as a self-contained underworld of misfits and rebels, blending crime, culture clash, and whimsy into a fable about escape and belonging.
Fred, a raffish safe blower, takes refuge in the Paris Metro after being chased by the henchmen of a shady businessman from whom he has just stolen some documents. While hiding out in the back rooms and conduits of the Metro, Fred encounters a subterranean society of eccentric characters and petty criminals.
