Married to fellow French citizen Leon and obsessed with control, Jacqueline one day adopts a brother-sister duo from Lithuania. To help the kids assimilate and adapt, the couple hires 20-year-old student Gabriele, who will soon begin to taste the sweetness of power.
‘The ambivalence of language, whether Lithuanian or French, emerges as one of the film’s central themes: a means of communication but one with painfully sharp limits, it creates barriers as much as bridges between individuals, turning into a source of doubts and a tool of betrayal.’ (Lithuania Radio & Television)
