this was excellent, top ten of films from 2011 so far. what begins as a french new wave inspired love story about a young man in love with a girl whose thief brothers literally keep in chains attached to their getaway cars, halfway through morphs into a rogue cop revenge thriller. swirling handheld camera work, smoke, and luminous black and white abound. Amazing debut feature for Hisham Lasri
