In this contemporary adaptation of Pierre Corneille’s brilliant, eponymous 17th century play, the enigmatic Alcandre is now a hotel concierge who uses the myriad in-house high-tech security cameras to show worried father Pridamant the whereabouts and travails of his son, Clindor. As Pridamant witnesses the conflicting romances involving his estranged son, Corneille’s modernist meta-narrative is transposed to contemporary Paris, underscoring the ambiguous nature of love, wealth and desire in an age of consumerism.

Действие разворачивается в деревне, куда за неуравновешенность и склонность к насилию отправляют в принудительный отпуск инспектора полиции Пюжоля, где его (не) ждут две дочери, мать и младший брат, прислуживающий местным бандитам. Его приезд совпадает с появлением третьего брата, беззвестно пропадавшего 15 лет, пришедшего в родной дом пешком, встречающего бывших знакомых с вымученной улыбкой и огоньком безумия в глазах. Два старших брата разнесут мирную идиллию, но о мотивах их действий можно только догадываться, потому что никаких флэшбэков в прошлое не будет.

Few of the characteristics that can be associated with Jean Paul Civyrac can be seen in his first film, a 14 minute short feature. Inevitably, considering its short length, the film is necessarily very much a character study, since there is little room to develop much in the way of a plot. Luc (Jean Descanvelle) is a young man who is determined to do things his own way and consequently conflicts with everyone he meets. He doesn’t give a damn what anyone thinks, isn’t interested in any advice they might have to give and is not interested in assistance from friends or family. He is going to do things his way, and do whatever it takes to make money, which is mainly performing sexual favours for any man who is willing to pay for it.
