Goliath

Goliath (2022) is a French-Belgian drama-thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Director Frédéric Tellier lines up three people on opposite sides of the same fight over pesticides — and lets their paths slowly crash into each other.

France is a gym teacher who picks up a protest sign after illness hits someone she loves. Patrick is a stubborn lawyer who has spent years filing long-shot environmental cases. Mathias is a polished lobbyist paid to defend a chemical conglomerate and smother every scandal before it spreads. One desperate act by a broken-down farmer ties their stories together, and a dry policy question turns into a David-and-Goliath standoff. Gilles Lellouche, Pierre Niney and Emmanuelle Bercot play characters who each carry their own version of the truth and their own price for it.

This is restrained, grown-up filmmaking about how a corporation buys time while lives run out. No chases, no explosions — the weapons here are paperwork, lab reports and sheer persistence. A good pick if you like social thrillers built around courtroom and big-lawsuit drama. Stream Goliath (2022) online on iFILM.
