The Child (Aka L'Enfant) DVD
A powerful, gripping and suspenseful drama that packs a devastating emotional force, 'The Child' stars Jeremie Renier as Bruno, a young petty thief who has fathered a baby with his 18 year old girlfriend Sonia (Deborah Francois). But when the temptation of easy money leads him to commit an act of shocking recklessness, its grave repercussions force a remorseful Bruno into a desperate and dangerous attempt to make amends. Winner of the prestigious 2005 Palme d'Or - placing Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne among the few filmmakers to have twice won the Cannes Film Festival's highest honour - 'The Child' is a compassionate yet unsentimental account of guilt and redemption.
