    Very realistic story

    The portrait of a character who sounds very accurate, believable, poignant. It is a Canadian film, but it could be French or German anyway. Nothing spectacular, because the only interest remains in the character study, and you absolutely have to focus on it to appreciate. I am not used to watch such kind of stuff and from time to time, it is refreshing to see something different. The storytelling seems very close to people, not really the academic and theatrical manner. It would have bored me. I don't want to give you details but maybe you have lived such "adventure" in your life. Who knows? Try it.
