In the House
There’s always a way to get in.
Directed by François Ozon
Produced by Wild Bunch, France 2 Cinéma
A darkly playful psychological thriller about manipulation and obsession that blurs the line between fiction and reality through a dangerous student-teacher dynamic.
A sixteen-year-old boy insinuates himself into the house of a fellow student from his literature class and writes about it in essays for his French teacher. Faced with this gifted and unusual pupil, the teacher rediscovers his enthusiasm for his work, but the boy’s intrusion will unleash a series of uncontrollable events.
