La dame de trèfle



Jérôme Bonnell : 2009
The Queen of Clubs

Aurélien and Argine have never managed to part ways. Orphans in their late twenties searching for an identity. The bond between brother and sister remains child-like since they have always lived together and never come to terms with the loss of their parents. Aurélien secretly supplements his income by selling off stolen metal. One night, his accomplice Simon suddenly arrives. Wanted by the police, he demands money and starts threatening them. After a brief struggle Aurélien accidentally kills Simon in self-defence and leaves the body in a ditch. It's the beginning of things spiralling out of control for Aurélien, the encounter with his own violence.
