ERIC GRAVEL’S movie Full Time takes place in a Paris beset by strikes. The rail network is at a standstill, the buses are off and you can get a taxi only by pulling strings. All of this puts
Julie at a severe disadvantage. A single mother of two, she lives out of town and needs astonishing stamina just to get into work. Rarely on time, she risks losing her job as head maid in a high-end hotel. We hear next to
nothing about the reasons for the
industrial action, nor do we need to. We see nothing of the wealthy – and filthy – hotel guests either. Implicit in Full Time

depend on work for their living are expendable, while the privileged few profit from their labour. Shot in a frantic
close-ups, taut and claustrophobic, it makes for bleak but compelling viewing, not least because of the superb central performance by Laure Calamy (Noémie Leclerc in Call My Agent). While she is a
woman with the odds stacked against her, rarely does her façade of cheery competence crack. At fault is a merciless
system, but it is she who carries the weight, resilient to the last. In cinemas from
