THE GIANTS (LES GÉANTS), 2011, 85 min. Dir. Bouli Lanners. Each summer, preteen brothers Zak and Seth find themselves alone and without resources in their parents' summer home, routinely abandoned by their increasingly absent mother. When they meet Danny, a street-smart local teenager, they tag along with him and slowly learn to embrace the startling independence that's been foisted upon them. Official selection of the Cannes 2011 Directors Fortnight. "Disarming lead performances and beautiful natural settings in an ambling evocation of adolescent discovery." - The Hollywood Reporter. In French with English subtitles. Belgian beer reception to follow the screening.
