A young teenager is a powerless witness to the demise of his father's poultry farm during a brutal heat wave. At the same time, his family also threatens to fall apart when his mother becomes intimate friends with another woman. His spiritual growth process is accelerated by all of this.
In many ways a captivating coming-of-age drama with beautiful camera work and a true performance by Luc Bruchez as the despairing youngster. All in all a very pleasant surprise.

Coming-of-age drama, because at a time when Gus has to explode with nothing but new and pleasant discoveries and findings ahead of him, he is presented with nothing but unpleasant experiences.
Gus seems hardened and suddenly more than mature, but there is also something like a child-parent bond that can help him regain his youth.
View of the hard farm life. Attention to the psychological impact on people when everything goes wrong.

Just a few days ago I happened to see Au Nom de la Terre, with a very identical farm context. Right down to the battery cage scenes. Striking.
I liked this one a lot less. Although beautifully made and well played, the story is not special enough to really move in any way.
