After a robbery gone wrong, Kenneth (Janssens) is imprisoned for four years while his brother Dave (Jeroen Perceval) escapes and takes off with Kenneth's girlfriend Sylvie (Baetens). When Kenneth is released from prison, after failing to cooperate with the police, he's eager to return to his old ways but discovers Dave is a reformed man keen to stay clean. Unsure how his brother will react, Dave can't bring himself to tell Kenny that he and Sylvie are now a couple and expecting a child together. Aware that Kenny's volatility could sink their relationship, Dave dubiously agrees to help his brother cover up his latest crime in the Ardennes forests where they spent their childhood together.

English A decent Belgian thriller that's properly raw and brutal towards the end. I might have pushed the gas even harder, the means were there. I liked the actor from Borgman with his intelligent insight as well. It wasn't bad at all, but there was still something missing for 4* for me. 65% ()

English Some similar movies no longer thrill me. It's harsh, it's dirty, essentially it's realistically harsh, which I normally like, but this is just a fairly ordinary story about a failed heist and its consequences between two brothers. Nothing groundbreaking, just well directed. ()
