EVERY YEAR IN QUEBEC, 12,500 PEOPLE GO MISSING,

MOSTLY RUNAWAYS, CONFUSED SENIORS, OR PEOPLE LOST IN THE FOREST.

2,000 OF THEM DISAPPEAR INTENTIONALLY. OTHERS DON'T.

BASED ON AN ORIGINAL IDEA BY YANNICK SAVARD

TRAPPED

Before it's over, I have things to say.

I went all the way.

I prepared everything. I organized it all.

I want you to be proud of me.

Mr. Lussier.

This is to confirm our meeting tomorrow morning.

Yes, we can adjust the commission if you sell the house quickly.

Perfect. Thank you.

You made me do all of this.

Do you remember how hard I tried to resist?

I didn't want to.

But it was already too late to back out.

It had been too late for a long time.

You could've just given me money to buy another one.

You don't get rich by throwing money away, Amélie,

and tomorrow I need to pay for a new computer

in case you've forgotten, so...

Speaking of tomorrow, can we do it early?

I have a team meeting for a project at 11.

Yes, but I need to visit a potential client first.

-Fifteen minutes tops. -Dad!

It's just a preliminary meeting to look.

Your 15 minutes always turn into two hours.

OK, leave me alone, please. It's my sauce.

It's really not that bad.

You're hilarious.

You wouldn't have put up a Christmas tree.

I wanted a Christmas tree. You don't care.

I'm the only one who wants to bring spirit into the house.

Who cares if it's tacky. It's the spirit.

She asks me lots of questions like

why am I single,

how long have I been alone, why I chose to study science.

I spent my date on the defensive. That's not like me.

What?

Sorry if I seem lost, but I was thinking...

Aren't you going out with a he instead of a she?

Not that it...

Don't try to put me in a box.

I don't fit in anywhere. I am who I am. That's it.

I won't say otherwise.

OK!

It'll be 10-15 minutes tops.

Promise you won't rush me in buying my computer.

No.

I need to be at Mahé's for 11.

Yes, boss.

-OK, thanks. -See you soon.

Hello.

It's Charles Lussier.

Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait!

I want to talk to someone!

I didn't do anything. What do you want?

Do you have my daughter? I want to talk to her.

The cops are coming...

The police are coming.

The police are coming.

Shit!

Four days, dammit.

Charles.

You?

You're the reason I'm here?

What do you want?

For you to understand that there are consequences to your actions.

No...

I didn't do anything.

You've got the wrong guy. I did nothing. Huh?

Explain. I don't get it.

Huh? Answer, dammit!

No! What do you want?

I won't eat your shitty food anymore.

Those days are over.

Yes, come on. Show yourself!

Show yourself if you're not scared. Just once!

You'll see...

I control everything here.

Got it.

Got it.

Dad?

Daddy?

Can you lend me 100 dollars, please?

I have a date and I don't want

to max out my credit card.

Ask your date to pay.

That's so outdated, totally boomer.

It's true!

Please, Dad. I need it.

Please?

OK.

Thanks.

Here.

Amélie?

Amélie?

Amélie?

Amélie! Amélie!

Shit.

The 25th.

Merry Christmas, Amélie.

Hello? Is anyone there?

Is anyone there? I'm here. I'm here. Is anyone there?

I'm here! Help me!

Hi.

We have to be quick

because I need to go to the office.

I'm not a lawyer yet.

So, officially, I can't give you legal advice.

OK.

Did they tell you why you were arrested?

Yes. Uh, no.

I didn't understand. I was a bit high.

Did they suggest you call legal aid?

Yes.

Why didn't you?

You know how it is.

Yes.

It was Bruno's birthday.

We went to a restaurant.

I had the mushroom risotto

like you always ordered.

I might have drunk a bit too much.

Don't worry. I took a taxi home.

At work, they changed my route, the jerks.

They put me on the alleys for three weeks.

That'll teach me not to tell the boss

what I think of him.

They say I have an attitude problem.

Hélène!

Hi! How are you?

Good, you?

Saturdays are always a bit rough.

I thought it was Wednesday.

I got my holiday work schedule.

Working on Christmas?

And New Year's Day.

I'm starting my shift.

Not sure I'll make it until tonight.

I'll go see the boss.

I'll take your shifts. Make it up to me in January.

That's not why I told you.

Another Christmas pretending with Max,

you're doing me a favor.

I forgot my pass in the car.

I'll catch up with you.

I'm still seeing the therapist.

I don't know why. She may have a ton of degrees,

but she can't listen like you did.

I don't just complain to her

like I did with you.

I miss you.

It should have been me, not you.

I was supposed to go first.

I'll bring you new ones next time. I promise.

No!

No!

Let me out!

Is anyone there?

Help!

Hello?

Help me! I'm here! Help!

Is your conscience clear, Hélène?

It shouldn't be.

Help me! I'm here!

Help!

Help me!

Is anyone there?

Who are you?

Make some noise if you hear me.

Who are you? Is anyone there?

Speak louder!

I can barely hear you.

Are you the police? Huh?

Who are you?

I can't hear. I can't hear.

Get me out of here before he comes back.

Is this another one of your games?

You think I don't know you're playing me?

Let me out, please!

I'm going to be sick.

Is anyone there? Who's there?

Nobody.

One in ten people has phobias.

The worst cause dizziness,

cramps, arrhythmia,

and paralysis.

We'll find the limits of your fears, Sabine.

I wonder if you'll find this worse

than the earthquake when you were buried alive.

Don't close the door, please!

Don't close the door! No! No!

When I had them all,

each in their little trap as you wanted,

I wondered how long they'd last.

Who would break first?

Who would make the others bend?

It's beautiful.

I'm watching you.

I know.

Please stop! I can't breathe!

Please!

What do you want from me?

For you to remember.

Remember what?

Please! I need to go to the bathroom!

I need to go to the bathroom!

If I'm not alone,

that means it's not personal.

And if it isn't personal, we can negotiate.

We just need to talk.

Find like a...

Go on, champ. Think!

Sleep well?

Would you have liked to be a doctor?

I would have.

Today, you're my patient, Hélène.

No!

No!

No!

I won't cut you... but I could.

I can do what I want to you whenever I want. Got it?

From now on, I live in your head.

Help!

I'm here! Help me!

-You OK? -No!

I'm tied up.

Help me!

It's too small.

I'm Alain. Who are you?

Hélène.

Hélène.

Where are we? Do you know who's doing this?

No, I don't.

Have you been here long?

I'm all mixed up. I don't know.

Is there someone on the other side of your cell?

I don't know. I haven't heard anything.

Alain! Alain!

What I want, when I want.

Do you get it?

Who are you?

Brigitte Guertin.

Are you the police? Can you help me?

No, I'm trapped here.

Me too.

I thought... I hoped...

-What's your name? -Charles. Charles Lussier.

Who's doing this to us? What do they want?

Have you seen my daughter Amélie? She's 16, tall...

You're the first person I've talked to since...

Why didn't I hear you before?

Were you the one shouting?

No, I wasn't.

I don't think so. I don't remember.

Here, we hear what he wants us to.

We speak when he does.

But now I can't say anything. He'll get mad.

Wait! You're not alone, OK?

We'll help each other.

I knew you'd manage to untie yourself.

But it's useless.

You won't get out of here.

I've got it all planned.

Please!

Talk to me. Anything but silence!

Have you been here long?

Months.

He often moves me to a new cell.

Are you really here?

Yes.

Am I going crazy?

No.

When did he take you?

The 12th. It's been 14 days.

Just 14 days?

What month is it?

What? Which month? December.

I've been here almost a year.

You've never tried to escape?

It's pointless.

You'll do it anyway.

Then you'll learn.

Like me.

Put these on.

No!

Hello.

There's chicken in the fridge.

I ate at work.

Weren't you supposed to work?

I'm too tired for another 12 hours.

Did you place the order?

Yes.

Did you buy my toothbrush?

It wasn't on the list.

Fuck!

I hate it when you forget what I ask!

What?

I want a divorce.

No. No way.

Max, this can't continue.

It will continue for as long as I want it to.

I have an errand to run. Don't wait up.

Max.

Forget what just happened, OK?

I have a meeting with a lawyer.

Cancel it.

I want my toothbrush tomorrow morning.

I call him The Cat.

Why?

Because he likes playing with me.

What does he want?

I don't know.

He must have a reason.

Nobody does this for nothing.

You'll learn.

What?

It's pointless to ask why or to think.

Or to hope.

The cops will come. They're looking for us.

The cops?

Forget it.

Why do you say that?

Fuck!

Are you listening?

What do you want?

You picked the wrong victim.

My husband's a cop. He'll...

Maybe I work for him.

Or I'm doing this to get back at him.

He's looking for me.

Every day, 30 people go missing in Quebec.

Not just runaways.

People escaping their past, their present,

their partner, and their debts.

Your husband isn't looking for you.

He thinks you took off.

Is it money that you want? Huh?

What do you want?

What do you want?

What did you do to them?

The rope.

The chair.

Time.

Nothing you haven't already been through.

They don't take me seriously enough yet.

You'll show them.

You'll change their minds.

There's nothing like an example.

Try to be convincing.

Maybe if you were worse off...

Brigitte?

He's leaving.

What did he want?

I have to convince you.

Of what?

To cooperate.

Why would I do that?

To save my life.

Maybe yours.

I don't get it!

You'll get it, Charles.

You'll all get it.

Do as I say

and you can eat,

drink, and sleep.

I see you.

I hear you.

I know what you're thinking.

You can challenge me, but there will be consequences.

There's a reason,

a very good reason for all of this.

You all have something in common.

Figure out what it is,

and you can all leave.

If you don't,

you'll never get out.

Your collars are electrified.

Brigitte, do you want to show them?

No.
