Title

A King Without Distraction

Taglines

Overview

A policeman and a serial killer play cat and mouse in an isolated mountain village in Nineteenth century France. The second film directed by the man who played the admirable lead role in Robert Bresson's A Man Escaped is a stylized and intense adaptation of a novel by Jean Giono. This police investigation in a 19th century village combines visual beauty with the rigor of the mise-en-scène—the vertigo of the criminal motivations indivisible from the refined graphics of the images.

Un roi sans divertissement

Taglines

Overview

En 1840, sur le plateau enneigé de l'Aubrac, le capitaine de gendarmerie Langlois vient en plein hiver enquêter sur la disparition d'une jeune fille du village. Il tente de s'identifier à l'assassin afin de comprendre son comportement. L'assassin est « Monsieur V*** », ce qui peut vouloir signifier « Monsieur Voisin » : Le tueur est quelqu'un de très quelconque, voire un voisin tout à fait banal qui vous dit bonjour tous les jours.
