Close, an adrenaline-pumping action thriller written and directed by Vicky Jewson (Born of War), is inspired by the life of the world’s leading female bodyguard, Jacquie Davis. The film stars Noomi Rapace as Sam, a counter-terrorist expert used to war zones, who takes on the job of protecting Zoe (Sophie Nelisse), a young and rich heiress – a babysitting job for her. But a violent attempted kidnapping forces the two to go on the run. Now they’ve got to take some lives – or lose theirs.
Close will debut Friday, January 18th exclusively on Netflix.
