Les agneaux (original title)
1h 30m | Drama | 28 June 1999 (France)
Storyline:
In a village of the French Juras, Daniel, 15, and Marie, 14, live in the shadow of their brutal, domineering father, who can only express his love through violence. When their mother dies, the two inseparable children flee into the forest pursued by their father.
User review:
Berry plays a wild, extremely incorrect father whose mantra is, “The weak have problems; the strong have solutions,” dragging son Daniel (Tomassian) and daughter Marie (Maraval) out of their beds for nocturnal boxing sessions and teaching them self-dependence at all costs. While Dad is romancing the tarty Nadia (Noemie Kocher), Mom is slowly croaking from some illness.
The inseparable kids, who can also read each other’s thoughts, decide enough is enough when the mother dies and father starts throwing the furniture out the window. Escaping into the hills, they’re first taken in by some over-friendly cheesemakers; later, when a guy puts the make on Marie at a disco, tragedy looms as the siblings protect their charmed state.
Schupbach tells the tale, adapted from a slim 1992 novel by Ania Carmel, in a plain, non-judgmental style, leaving the dark undercurrents to speak for themselves. In line with the film’s ironic tone, Berry’s father emerges more as a charming scumbag than a heavy villain, and the creepy kids (dubbed “my lambs” by Dad) as almost Cocteau-ish sexual innocents detached from the real world.
