“Elegant, spare, poetic, uncomfortably quiet, and, at times, inscrutable, NO FEAR, NO DIE is a little-known masterwork in the oeuvre of Denis.”
—Senses of Cinema
In this “ruggedly unsentimental and psychologically evocative” (Film at Lincoln Center) French crime drama from Claire Denis (BEAU TRAVAIL), a pair of immigrants (Isaach de Bankolé and Alex Descas) get caught in a web of paranoia and regret following the boom — and bust — of their cockfighting ring. Co-starring new-wave icon Jean-Claude Brialy (LE BEAU SERGE).
