Three accidents are the focus of "En terrain Connus" ["Familiar Ground"]. The first occurs on the work of Maryse (Fanny Mallette), as a producer loses his arm. The second takes a partridge, which crashes to the window by Benoit (Francis La Haye). The third man announced from the future, his prediction is for Maryse accident with the car. This is the rough breakdown of the film with intertitles. Maryse Benoît and are brother and sister - she lives in an unhappy marriage, he still lives on the upper floor of his home and not getting his life under control. Among the usual dissatisfaction in their daily lives yet also joined by a particularly cold Canadian winter (The place: Québec) and the very fatalistic pronouncement accident. Granted, this reads oddly. And it's strange, but only in the best sense. The French-Canadian "En terrain Connus" by Stéphane Lafleur combines a lot of bizarre ideas, absurd situation comedy and hilarious characters. He succeeds, it never issued a province to knit freaky comedy that constantly refer to their potential should be comical, but rather to position itself as a very gentle and quiet tragedy. worn so it may seem, Lafleur said nothing short of a story as it writes the normal life. This breaks He is certainly a no fences or presented something like the most original film of this year's Berlinale, but is "En terrain Connus" just because of its unobtrusive style and his wonderfully soft punch a fun journey into the snowy Quebec. The sympathetic way in which this film is completely out of line somehow reminded, probably not by chance at "Fargo" .
