Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Trouble Every Day
TROUBLE EVERY DAY is a movie co-written and directed by Claire Denis in 2001.

Vincent Gallo is a doctor on his honeymoon trip in Paris, France. He's desperately trying to find Alex Descas, a researcher with whom he's worked in this city some years before. Vincent and Béatrice Dalle, Alex's collaborator, had themselves tested with a new chemical product. But the side effects were terrible, Alex cannot having sex with his wife without feeling the urge to kill her and eat her flesh. Béatrice Dalle has already crossed the frontier and savagely killed several people while making love to them. She's locked up in Alex's house while he tries to find a cure.
