The eponymous heroine is forced to take on a variety of attackers using hand guns, machine guns, shot guns and grenades. She is helped a bit by an injured man who is dying on her sofa and communicates with her mum on her mobile. This is an extremely violent movie, taking place in real time (more or less) in a single room, with one or two excusions into the corridor and views on CCTV of the entrance to the building and the stairwell. There is a bit of smoking and drinking and, despite the poster, no actual frontal nudity.
