The Terrible Children background

The Terrible Children

A dark and intense exploration of the twisted bond between a sibling pair, who use their isolation to entangle others in a web of psychological manipulation.

A snowball fight between schoolboys sets off a chain of events as Paul, who has a secret crush on Dargelos, falls unconscious after being hit in the chest. Later, he meets Agathe, who bears a striking resemblance to Dargelos, and falls deeply in love. The four friends, including Elisabeth, her sister Paul, and their friend Gérard, move into a large apartment, where Paul builds a replica of their old room. As Paul and Agathe's feelings for each other grow, Elisabeth becomes jealous and starts to manipulate them, leading to a sinister plot.
