(In an unnamed forest, a youg arab is chased by 3 soldiers.
He’s got 28 minutes left , not one more, to save his ass.
There’s no time for compromise, neither with justice, nor with ethics in this manhunt . It’s a hunt ’till death. The story has been taken from the novel of Pouy and Raynal (2000).
The ennemy is invisible.
The movie keeps the spirit of the novel, an energy made of blood and sweat, without any place for thinking.
Because in this event, the characters have no time to relate their lives, they can just come to the point.
Coarse, rough, Manhunt stands further back from social movies “with message” .
We want this movie to be a masterpiece.)
