The Trouble with You

In a gritty, rain‑slick city where the line between duty and desire blurs, Yvonne returns each night to her son with stories of his late father, the celebrated chief Santi. Her own reputation as a hard‑working lieutenant keeps her feet firmly on the streets, yet a sudden revelation about her husband’s hidden corruption forces her to confront a legacy that no bedtime tale can gloss over. The film’s tone is a restless mix of tense noir and wry, human vulnerability, letting the audience feel the weight of a personal truth that threatens to shatter a family’s foundation.

Driven by a quiet resolve, Yvonne steps away from the safety of the precinct’s bureaucracy and into the tangled underbelly of the city’s past. There she encounters Antoine, a man whose life was irrevocably altered by the very actions she now learns Santi once ordered. Their meeting is as much a collision of guilt and curiosity as it is a spark that ignites a series of unpredictable, often chaotic moments. The chemistry between them is charged with unspoken questions, pulling both characters into a precarious dance between redemption and retribution.

The world they inhabit pulses with ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances—a police force clinging to procedure, a community haunted by hidden betrayals, and a city that seems to watch their choices with a bemused detachment. As Yvonne dives deeper into the murky history of her husband’s deeds, the film paints a portrait of a woman wrestling with the dual burdens of a public badge and a private conscience. The mood remains taut, laced with dark humor and a lingering sense that every revelation could tip the fragile balance of their lives.
