Premiered at the 2024 Deauville American Film Festival, No Chains No Masters (Ni chaînes ni maîtres) brings together a powerful cast led by Benoît Magimel, acclaimed for his César-winning performances in Pacifiction and De son vivant, and Camille Cottin, known internationally for Call My Agent! and Stillwater.
