CGiii Comment
No music and stark cruelty.
A family drives a little boy insane.
It may have been torture for the kid but it certainly is agonising for the viewer.
He lops from one catastrophe to the other - and, if you don't lose him along the way then you certainly need to take a long hard look at yourself.
This is cheerless in every sense of the word.
A turgid trek without any redemption and, perhaps, if truth be told...a masterwork depite its difficulties.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A family crisis: a crazy mother, a homosexual and depressive son, an absent father...set in the idyllic french countryside.
