Synopsis
A Private Life (Vie privée, 2025) is a French mystery thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Rebecca Zlotowski. Jodie Foster plays Lilian Steiner, a celebrated psychiatrist who has spent her career inside other people's heads. Daniel Auteuil plays her ex-husband Gabriel, with Virginie Efira and Mathieu Amalric filling out an unusually strong ensemble.
One of Lilian's patients dies. The circumstances are murky. The police move on. Lilian doesn't. She is convinced it was murder, and she pulls Gabriel — charming, infuriating, the last person she wanted back in her life — into a private investigation that keeps leading somewhere darker. Every file she opens answers one question and opens three more.
Zlotowski frames the thriller around a specific irony: a woman trained to see through everyone else's defenses has no idea what is happening right in front of her. A Private Life opened in France in September 2025, earning over $9 million at the box office. Watch A Private Life (2025) on iFILM.
