Director Jeanne Leblanc and co-writer Judith Baribeau pull no punches in portraying the malicious underbelly of the town at the center of Les nôtres. Read full review

Les Nôtres” remains — right up to its tight, repressed ending — a deeply disquieting, superbly performed evocation of a very banal sort of evil. Read full review

The film is a j’accuse aimed at those complicit in oppressing the most vulnerable in order to protect the powerful. Read full review

Overall, Les nôtres fails to dive into the depths of its subject matter, hinting at a dark underbelly that it never full explores. Read full review
