Diane Kramer is led by one obsession: to find the driver of the mocha color Mercedes that hit her son and devastated her life. With a few belongings, some money and a gun, she goes to Evian, where she's learned the driver lives. But sometimes, the path of revenge is more tortuous than it seems...Diane will have to face another woman, friendly and mysterious.
Moka, a complex psychological thriller, brings together two of the biggest stars of French cinema, Emmanuelle Devos and Nathalie Baye. The critics found echoes of Claude Chabrol in the subtle, elegant film.
Filmography: Accomplices (2009).
