Cécile de France Thomas Doret

Plot

A boy seeks his father and is taken in by a hairdresser.

Sinekatalog’s take

The Dardenne brothers' short, urgent drama of an abandoned boy and the hairdresser who takes him in is moving and unsentimental. Thomas Doret is fierce, and the film is simple and powerful.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
