Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real Maureen Kearney was an Irish trade unionist in France's notoriously closed nuclear sector; her case exposed how whistleblowers face violence when documents don't suffice.
Salomé deliberately avoided thriller music during key moments, forcing audiences to sit with bureaucratic dread rather than cathartic release.
