action
Miriam and Antoine Besson have been separated for a year. They both have two children: Joséphine, who will soon be 18 years old, and 11-year-old Julien. The custody rests with the mother, who prevents any contact with Antoine, moves regularly with the children and has a secret number so that Antoine cannot contact them. In the past, Antoine has not only proven to be extremely controlling, but has also repeatedly become violent towards Miriam and their daughter. However, Miriam never filed a complaint. Antoine has now been able to move his job to his wife's town and will be moving shortly. He enforces a visitation right in court with Julien, who now has to spend the weekend with him every two weeks. At the judicial hearing, Julien had spoken out vehemently against contact with his father.
On the first weekend, Julien acts cautiously and refusively towards his father. Antoine is staying with his parents until he can move into his apartment. After a short time, Antoine begins to look for ways to contact Miriam. He forces Julien to give him Miriam's cell phone number. Julien uses a white lie to prevent Antoine from meeting Miriam at her parents' house. However, this does not give him any consent to swap the next "father's weekend" so that he cannot attend his sister's 18th birthday. During the second father weekend, Antoine's mother reports that a friend saw Julien and Joséphine early in a certain district. When Antoine begins to ask Julien why they were both there at the time, it is enough for Antoine's father to see his son relapse into his obsessive behavior. There is an argument and Antoine drives away with Julien. Manipulative, extortionate and threatened with violence leads Antoine Julien to admit that her apartment is in this part of the city where they were seen. A little later, Antoine forces his son to give the exact address. Antoine gains access to the apartment, inspects every room under the eyes of the shocked Miriam and then begins to cry, he has changed after all. Miriam remains dismissive.
While Miriam and Julien go to Joséphine's party, Antoine returns to his parents, who actually put him out of the door. When Joséphine's celebration is already in progress, Antoine announces himself. Miriam intercepts him in the parking lot to prevent contact with the daughter. Antoine becomes violent; Miriam is defended by her sister, who can drive Antoine away. Joséphine spends the next night with her grandparents, while Miriam and Julien return home. During the night Antoine Sturm rings the doorbell and appears shortly afterwards with a shotgun in front of Miriam's door. The neighbor alerts the police and Miriam also calls the emergency number in panic. While Antoine begins to shoot in the door and kick it in, Miriam and Julien, under the guidance of the security officer on the phone, escape into the bathroom, where they barricade themselves. Just before Antoine can gain access to the bathroom, he is arrested by the police and taken away. Miriam and Julien receive psychological care while they wait for the ambulance; the neighbor looks briefly at the scenery and then locks her door.

criticism

The star awarded four stars for the film and called it a "great played, realistic and calm film". The daily praised the director's work: “He [Legrand] succeeds in capturing the vague, ambiguous, the insolubility of this entanglement not in words, not even in individual images, but in scenes developed with precision and patience, which one follows increasingly breathlessly . "
The Sächsische Zeitung particularly emphasized Thomas Gioria's performance: How he embodies this figure of Julien, how he comes to him so burning authentically, touching the deepest soul and simply strikingly and translating him, is one of the outstanding screen events at least this year . "The Hamburger Tageblatt also praised Gioria, but criticized the" simplified [e], even coarsened [e] [...] drawing of the adult figures. This film leaves you affected, but hardly any wiser. ”“ It is Legrand's flair for acting and his great cast that make the film an event, ”said Die Welt .
