The day Kelly-Anne has been waiting for has arrived. The trial begins for
Ludovic Chevalier, accused of the brutal murder of three underage girls. Unlike
most people, Kelly-Anne is fascinated by the man, she becomes obsessed with him
and attends every single court hearing in the hope he’ll give her at least a
fleeting glance. The border between reality and fantasy starts to blur, however,
until Kelly-Anne ceases to be a mere passive observer. Pascal Plante once again
expresses an interest in female subjectivity, nevertheless, this time he has
come up with an arthouse thriller about the perilous attraction of evil. At the
same time, the interplay between what we can and can’t see, and what is
explicit and what is conjecture, develops into an almost physical viewing
experience.
