“The House of Hatred and Revenge”
When his young son is killed in a hit and run accident, Charles Thenier resolves to hunt down and murder the killer. By chance, Thenier makes the acquaintance of an actress, Helène Lanson, who was in the car at the time of the accident. He then meets Helène’s brother-in-law, Paul Decourt, a truly horrible individual.
A sun-drenched seaside setting belies a grim, existential dread. This is a deliberate, character-driven descent into obsession, where the pursuit of vengeance feels both inevitable and soul-crushing. The atmosphere is thick with unspoken tension.
