Le diable dans la peau



Gilles Martinerie : 2012

Brothers Xavier and Jacques, aged eleven and seven, are inseparable, bound closely to one another through a violent family environment. They live in the countryside in a land full of gorges, plateaux and vast expanses that offer the thrill of freedom and the primitive pleasure of a poetic relationship with nature. A place where they may find a semblance of freedom and escape their bleak daily lives. It's the eve of the holidays and summer looks promising. Then they accidentally learn that the next school year will separate them: Jacques will be sent away to a special institute. This is their last summer before everything changes and their world collapses forever. Gilles Martinerie's debut feature premiered in competition in the Alice nella Città section at Rome Film Festival 2011.
