Have you seen a little crime series on Netflix called “Ganglands” on Netflix by any chance? If you haven’t, I humbly recommend it. Tunisian-French actor Sami Bouajila (The Crow) is fantastic in it, and as such, I was compelled to find out what his goings-on were these days. Alas, we have The Chase – per its international title whilst domestically named Six Jours for its local release on New Years Day in theaters from Unifrance.
11 years ago, inspector Malik couldn’t solve a kidnapping case and a little girl died. Now with only a few days before the crime gets classified, he decides to reopen the case. Malik owes it to the mother and to himself. As he digs into the past, a child is kidnapped again. The pattern is the same one as a decade ago, it’s no coincidence. Malik knows he has a few days to make things right and to bring justice. The clock is ticking…
The Chase joins Bouajila on screen with Julie Gayet, Philippe Résimont, and Yannick Choirat. Juan Carlos Medina directs his third feature returning to the format since the last of several television gigs he’s work on after his first two features, 2012’s Painless, and 2016’s The Limehouse Golem.
