The Story

This special limited edition slipcover (designed by Steak Mtn) is limited to 1,000 units and is only available on our website and at select indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them.

KimStim is a Brooklyn based, full-service distribution company dedicated to the release of exceptional independent, foreign, and documentary film. Founded in 2000 by Mika Kimoto and Ian Stimler, KimStim brings to US and North American audiences selected films from around the world gleaned from the most prestigious film festivals and include top prize winners from Sundance, Cannes, Venice, Toronto, Berlin, and Tribeca.

Honoré’s scandalous, notorious second feature (“uncommercial in the extreme,” sniffed Variety) returns in a new, 20th anniversary restoration. Somewhere in the Canary Islands, promiscuous mother Hélène (the ever-impressive Isabelle Huppert), cool and in charge, and her pious Catholic teenaged son Pierre (Louis Garrel, fresh off The Dreamers), just back from boarding school, discuss his father’s infidelity. But when the family patriarch dies in a car crash, Hélène launches into a wild series of parties, gradually involving her son in her drugging, drinking and sex-fueled nights out.

directed by: Christophe Honoré
starring: Isabelle Huppert, Louis Garrel, Emma de Caunes, Joana Preiss
2004 / 110 min / 1.85:1 / French DTS-HD MA 5.1
