In the heart of London’s towering One Canada Square, the annual gala of a prominent energy company becomes the epicenter of a high-stakes hostage crisis. A group of radical activists, aiming to expose the corporation’s deep-seated corruption, seizes control of the event, taking 300 attendees captive. Their mission, however, takes a darker turn when an extremist within their ranks threatens to execute everyone to broadcast his anarchic message to the world.

Unbeknownst to the captors, Joey Locke (Daisy Ridley), an ex-soldier turned window cleaner, is suspended 50 stories high, meticulously working on the building’s glass facade. Upon witnessing the chaos unfold inside, Joey’s military instincts kick in. With limited resources and the element of surprise on her side, she embarks on a perilous mission to infiltrate the building, neutralize the threat, and rescue the hostages.

The stakes escalate when she discovers that her older brother is among those trapped, adding a personal vendetta to her life-or-death endeavor. Directed by Martin Campbell, Cleaner (2025) is an adrenaline-fueled action thriller that delves into themes of corruption, radicalism, and redemption. As Joey navigates the treacherous heights and the moral complexities within, viewers are taken on a relentless journey where every decision could mean the difference between life and death.

The film promises a gripping narrative that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats, questioning the fine line between justice and vengeance.
