02/12/2014 Bien, mais peu percutant, juste bien. Quelques bons moments de tension/tendresse dans des liens familiaux troubles palpables, mais en effleurant à peine le litige sous-jacent que l'on aurait dû développer davantage. Acteurs exemplaires et dénouement correct. See more 09/01/2013 I like its appropriate length + narrative speed, its bitter-sweet tone of story-telling; furthermore, I like Pio + Jérémie.
