In 1800, Brittany is on its knees, overwhelmed by the regime in place and by the omnipotent clergy. It founders in an economic slump without end in sight and, in the middle of all this, a young, suffering girl pushes back as best she can. She is known as the "Poisoning Angel," an isolated child, mistreated by life and rocked by morbid thoughts. She will become one of the world's most notorious serial killers and will sow death, perhaps merely to be looked at and loved.

El negocio va viento en popa, pero el nacimiento del sonriente Alan lo cambiará todo. La imbatible joie de vivre del pequeño no tardará en revelarse altamente nociva para las “ventas”.

No sabe quién los envía; sin embargo, las secuencias que aparecen en las cintas se hacen cada vez más personales, lo que sugiere que el remitente le conoce desde hace algún tiempo. Georges siente que una amenaza se cierne sobre él y su familia, pero, puesto que no hay evidencias de delito alguno, la policía se niega a ayudarlo.
Director
Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891) was a leading light in the symbolist movement of French literature, which rejected the use of realism in the depiction of emotions and ideas. In this film, Robert is an eccentric, oversized young man who puzzles and infuriates his parents by locking himself into a closet for long periods of time; at the same time, he loudly recites poetry by Arthur Rimbaud. Kicked out of the house by his exasperated parents, he decides to make a pilgrimage of the exotic African sites Rimbaud haunted in his final years. He meets and then travels with Isabelle, who is attempting to escape from a rejected suitor's unwanted attentions. In addition to that problem, she has another, more curious problem. It seems she is turning into a hawthorn bush.
