Oxygen is an intense French sci-fi thriller that masterfully combines claustrophobic horror with mind-bending mystery. Directed by Alexandre Aja and starring Mélanie Laurent, the film traps viewers alongside its protagonist in a nightmarish survival scenario that unfolds almost entirely within the confines of a cryogenic pod.
The story begins when a woman awakens inside a high-tech medical chamber with no memory of how she got there or who she is. With her oxygen supply rapidly depleting, she must piece together fragmented clues about her identity while racing against time to escape her metallic prison. As memories slowly return, the truth behind her situation proves far more complex than anticipated.
Laurent delivers a powerhouse solo performance that anchors the film’s psychological intensity, while Aja’s direction creates mounting tension through innovative cinematography and sound design. Oxygen premiered on Netflix to critical acclaim, praised for its inventive storytelling and Laurent’s compelling portrayal of desperation and determination.
