What Is Guardian of the Night About?
The premise of Guardian of the Night without spoilers.
Jean‑Philippe Ecoffey stars as Yves, an erratic night‑shift police officer who secretly turns to petty crime by day to impress Aurore, a nurse (Aurelle Doazan) he idolizes from afar. Though she already has a boyfriend, Yves robs a post office and later tries to run over her lover, actions that finally land him in serious trouble, all delivered with an off‑beat, original comedy‑drama humor.
