In his second feature film, Lukas Dhont (the director of the greatly received “Girl” from 2018) focuses on the brutal reality surrounding teenage Léo and Rémi, whether in school or family relationships. A dangerous combination of tenderness and love with viciousness and selfishness that brings to mind “Heartstone” by G. A. Gudmundsson (a hit of the 8th FKA edition).
