Gallic heartthrob Romain Duris hits a dazzling streak in this stylish and audacious thriller. Tom, a contemptible small-time hood, dreams of being a concert pianist like his mother, yet finds himself pulled inexorably into his father's seedy and foolish underworld life. A work of authority and intensity, set to masterful classical musical performances.
