The Son

Belgian writer and director team of brothers, Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne delivered one of their best films with this profound drama. The arrival of a new carpenter apprentice brings painful memories to the instructor at the rehab center for juvenile delinquents. With their signature hand held camera and impeccable assured direction, the brothers deliver another profound and astonishing film without a false beat. Olivier Gourmet gives an extraordinary performance as the ordinary man faced with a real dilemma of biblical proportions. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
