About
TRANSFUGE
If we imagined that the cup-and-ball toy remplaced the bike, nothing could stop us thinking of a Belgian version of Shining.
LE MONDE
Remarkably sharp dialog (...), meticulous mise en scène and impressive performances from Nathalie Baye and Thomas Blanchard.
LE NOUVEL OBSERVATEUR
Wicked and harrowing just the way you like it.
METRO
This strange and masterful debut feature, whose director Antoine Cuypers has given a Festen kind of look, draws its power from the head-on confrontation between Nathalie Baye and the young Thomas Blanchard, both of whom are impeccable.
