The Grolandese synopsis of the film, by Figrot
“In a luxurious villa by the sea, a modest young woman finds a strange family: an unknown and very rich father, his whimsical wife, his businesswoman daughter, a rebellious teenager and a disturbing servant. someone is lying. Between suspicions and lies, the mystery settles and the evil spreads… After Impeccable et Exit timeMarnier affirms here his love for Chabrol with this pacerbic painting of the bourgeoisie and the class struggle, where all the characters are as bastards as each other. Between social criticism, a game of pretense and a tense thriller (some sequences evoke De Palma), the director’s virtuosity is in no doubt as to maintaining an ambiguity and we completely agree. summarizes Fifigrot on this film, one of the last screenings of the Groland festival which ends this Sunday.
