This drama about 11-year-old Martin is based on a novel by Canadian author Timothy Findley, about the complexities of childhood in the Canadian upper-middle-class environment of the 1960s. In the film we find ourselves on a farm in contemporary rural France. The director faithfully focuses on the perspective of the child who doesn?t understand much of what?s going on around him, leading him to become increasingly anxious about the extreme situations which continually confront him.
