Spoilers ahead
Iris Doriot, a beautiful 30-year-old Parisian, hatches a plan to escape her life with a wealthy banker husband by enlisting a stranger to help fake her kidnapping. She convinces Max Lopez, a mechanic in debt, to go along with the ruse after he fixes her car, hoping the arrangement will set him up financially as well. Iris disappears from the street after a routine lunch with her husband, and soon she is seen hiding in an empty flat she has long watched for a friend. The plan seems straightforward: Iris will stage her own disappearance, and Max will orchestrate the steps to make it look real enough to prompt a ransom.
