A very strange but beautiful feature.

This is the second of Xavier Durringer's films I saw. And after I discovered him in his masterpiece J'IRAI AU PARADIS CAR L'ENFER EST ICI, a gangster film that was also a offbeat point of view concerning the underworld. In both, Gerald Laroche gives wonderful performances. It's such a shame that this actor doesn't make more films for the big screen...

Back to this movie, we see here a small group pf friends, two men and a woman, who spend some vacation in a country mansion, near the Annecy lake, in the southeast of France. The relationship between the three of them is worth seeing, so unusual, and disturbing for the audience too. I can't tell more, because I would spoil this very little gem. We of course think of François Truffaut's JULES ET JIM. But it's different although.
