Is that an ES 350? Never saw a chrome strip like that on any. Very nice touch!
Hope you got the trunk open. I think there’s an emergency way. Check your owners manual.

In a previous thread they opened the small opening in rear seat and with a flashlight and pole were able to open trunk with the emergency pull handle. You did try the mechanical key right? If you did try that again and when turned hit top of trunk with back of your fist to try and unfreeze mechanism.

First time happening? Did you check the glovebox trunk disable button? Maybe the button was depressed by mistake.

You can use the rear seat pass-through to pull the emergency open handle on the trunk lid.
