No hay pasión más peligrosa que la cinefilia. Si no, fíjense en Sylvain, un joven taquillero de una vieja sala de arte y ensayo a punto de cerrar, que dedica su tiempo libre a saldar sus deudas con las mujeres asesinando silenciosamente y a golpe de puñaladas. Pocas veces el plástico y colorista póster de Playtime de Tati ha parecido tan sombrío. El director Laurent Achard traslada los referentes cinéfilos al universo frío y aterrador de un asesino en serie. Una imagen medida, una estética marcadamente retro y un dominio rotundo de los tiempos aderezan esta cinta de celuloide ensangrentado.

Ya lo decía el productor Val Lewton (artífice de algunos de los hitos de Jacques Tourneur): lo que más teme el hombre es la oscuridad. La crème de la crème del cómic y la ilustración se ponen al servicio del cine para crear una película colectiva centrada en el miedo a aquello que no se ve. La variedad de nombres se traslada al plano estético que va desde la geometría pura a trazos más figurativos y las historias transcurren por distintos senderos del terror: un hombre atrapado en una casa, niños que desaparecen, pesadillas e insectos devoradores. El resultado, sin embargo, posee una misteriosa unidad, el secreto de toda una revolución de la animación. (FILMAFFINITY)

I am there. I say nothing. In the lounge, the boxes still opened from our moving in. My father. My mother. Come to comfort me. Her father. Her mother. Incapable to say the words. To put into words what has happened. And outside, the rain. Diluvian. Improbable.

French novelist Vincent Ravalec made his directorial debut with this French drama about small-time crook Gaston (Yvan Attal) who poses as a millionaire after he picks up hitchhiking 16-year-old Marie-Pierre (Virginie Lanoue). Actually living in a seedy apartment, Gaston deals in stolen goods, but he soon climbs to bigger heists, including car thefts. Concealing his illegal activities, Gaston operates his company, Extramill, out of upscale, posh offices, while he and Marie-Pierre move into a sedate upper-middle-class neighborhood. Life is sweet, but the onset of paranoia, kinky sex activities, and police probes eventually culminate in violence.

Outwardly a chilling portrait of the aimless lives of unemployed inner city youths living on society's fringe, the underlying message of this volatile drama seems to call for violence to rectify social injustices.

The loosely structured tale reaches its climax at a concert where the two rival groups collide.
