Sister (2012)
Up and downhill kid
21 April 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Another strange, weird item from the female director Ursula Meier who already gave us HOME, back in 2008. With her, you may expect the unexpected. Surprises within surprises. The perfect example of the best offbeat french product. The tale of a twelve years old boy who goes to ski resorts, up in the Alpes mountains, in order to steal skis and many other items. He has a "sister" - Léa Seydoux - who appears to be actually his mother. A very complex relationship between the two of them, and fascinating too. And I would understand that many audiences may not get it. So unusual. But I personally love that. I won't tell anything about the "sub characters" who are involved in this unclassable movie.

The ending is also confusing, and you can think about it a long time after quiting the theatre.
