Synopsis

The devastating effects of family violence as seen by two young girls…

After a 15-year absence, a mysterious man returns to his family clan. Five-year old Aurelie takes warmly to her nervous uncle and the adults remain caught up in the mythic ideals of family bonds. But the older sister is more cautious and foresees the dramatic chain of events to come.
