Histoire
André Demester secretly and painfully loves Barbe, his childhood friend, accepting from her the little that she gives him. He leaves home to be a soldier in a war in a far off land. Barbarity, camaraderie and fear turn him into a warrior. As the seasons go by, Barbe, alone and wasting away, waits for the soldiers to return. Will Demester’s boundless love for Barbe save him?
Résumé
In "Flanders," André Demester silently adores Barbe, his lifelong friend, content with whatever affection she offers. When war breaks out abroad, he joins the ranks, leaving Barbe behind to fade away in solitude. As the seasons pass, André's battlefield experiences hone him into a formidable warrior amidst camaraderie and brutality. The question lingers: Will André's profound love for Barbe guide him home? Director Bruno Dumont follows up his controversial "Twentynine Palms" with this powerful tale of young soldiers facing transformative events, earning the Grand Prix at Cannes in 2006.
