A wonder
9 December 2005
this is a wonderful feature, so sensitive, intelligent and funny at the same time. The story of this relationship between a grandmother and her grand son who refuses to mourn his mother, is deeply touching while never sentimental, which makes it a very modern and original film. Ferrato and Quatravaux, as well as the entire cast, are wonderful and so natural. The way Duran Cohen play with the audience with this mix reality and fiction is troubling but reminds me of the world we live in, a world where you never know what's true or not. May be that's what makes this film so modern and grabbing. Grandsons won a first prize at horizon section of the Venise Film Festival and it deserves it. See it where you can.
