On October 30, 2017, the body of 29-year-old Alexia Daval was found in a wood near her home in the Gray area of Haute-Saône. The young woman was strangled to death; her body was partially charred. Two days earlier, her husband, Jonathann Daval, 32, had reported her disappearance while jogging. After three months of investigation, he confessed to be the author of the murder. This documentary retraces minute by minute the custody of Jonathann Daval. A tense, intense and uncertain camera session, told by the gendarmes themselves.

All in all, “Event Horizon” is a cinematic misfire, begging to be perfected in the future. While it possesses an array of admirable visuals, the film leaves much to be desired. If only we could see Anderson’s preferred cut, which featured more character development and tortuous imagery. In the meantime, I have a catchphrase for this film: In space no one can hear you snore.
