Photos: Case 137 to Open in Theaters With Léa Drucker
Directed by Dominik Moll, the film follows an internal affairs officer navigating institutional pressure while investigating police brutality.
Case 137, directed by Dominik Moll, is set to open in theaters beginning October 16, 2026, led by César winner Léa Drucker.
Following the Yellow Vest protests of Paris in 2018, internal affairs officer Stéphanie Bertrand must investigate the conduct of her fellow police officers during the demonstrations. Though striving to remain objective, Stéphanie's position leaves her at stark odds with the rest of the police force. When she scrutinizes the near-fatal assault of a teenage protester from her hometown, Stéphanie is met with growing institutional pressure to drop the case and move on. The further her investigation develops, the more Stéphanie's faith in the system she belongs to is tested.
The film comes from Dominik Moll, the director of THE NIGHT OF THE 12TH, and stars Léa Drucker in a César-winning role for Best Actress. CASE 137 is a procedural examining institutional violence, corruption and accountability in the criminal justice system.
