In Your Hands (original title: "Dans les mains") is a French-language drama film released in 2010. The movie begins with Anna (played by Kristin Scott Thomas), an experienced surgeon who performs a medical operation that goes awry. Simon (played by Pio Marmai), the brother of the patient who died during the surgery, holds Anna responsible and decides to take revenge by kidnapping her.
Simon holds Anna captive in a remote cabin in the woods, with the intention of making her suffer as much as his brother did before he died. The situation becomes complicated when Simon starts to develop feelings for Anna, and as a result, she begins to feel a sense of Stockholm Syndrome towards her kidnapper.
As the story progresses, Anna begins to understand Simon's motivations and starts to see him as a complex person rather than a cold-hearted criminal. Eventually, the two form a bond, and Simon allows Anna to leave the cabin unharmed. However, Anna is unable to forget Simon and decides to go back to him out of a sense of love and vengeance.
Throughout the movie, the audience is reminded of the inherent power dynamics at play during a kidnapping situation, and the complex emotions that arise between the victim and the perpetrator. The movie was directed by Lola Doillon and received critical acclaim for its nuanced portrayal of Stockholm Syndrome.
