I have no idea why this won so many awards or why it is circulating the art houses. It is long, boreing, poorly directed and did i mention long.....i will not get into the content or the message, perhaps that is why it is still around.

It is french (subtitles)and all I can is that the casting was spot on. 1 outta 10 cause it is about an interesting topic, although poorly told and I am impressed with some of the acting.

My girlfriend wanted to see this and she also wanted to walk out, I insisted on staying since I assumed it won awards for a reason. After sitting though it, maybe 2 plus hours worth.... this reasoning escapes me completely other than the topic may be of interest to some. Look at internet movie data base for contents and story details.
