Description
In 1975, Philippe Druillet lost his wife Nicole to cancer. He exorcised her death left behind in The Night, a nihilistic story about the inevitable ending that none of us can avoid.
Set in a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, The Night follows gangs of dope-addicted bikers on a collision course for a bloody battle for the ultimate shoot.
