It starts out like a fairy tale: there’s a queen, a king, and their beautiful children, Pauline, Anaïs and Guillaume. But it’s a bit more complicated than that. The king wears high heels, the queen’s trying to make up for lost time, and their heirs have become rebellious. It’s all gone haywire and Pauline makes her getaway.

Reviews

"Emilie Brisavoine’s documentary tackles family conflicts, a frightening and moving mass of “primitive” wounds, of fears and frayed nerves… Between reality and psychoanalysis, an intentionally marginal form of cinema with an incredibly refreshing raw beauty to it." - Muriel Del Don, Cineuropa
