Les pénitences
By Alex Viens. 2023
Jules rend visite à son père, Denis, un vieux punk imprévisible, afin de lui remettre une énigmatique petite boîte. Après…
un silence de dix ans, leurs retrouvailles s'orchestrent autour d'un spaghetti bien arrosé. Mais Denis veut dicter les règles du jeu et la tension monte, dévoilant les raisons de ce huis clos qui vire bientôt au cauchemar. Portée par les chansons de The Cure, parmi les flaques d'urine et les débris de la télévision, Jules mettra le point final à ce crescendo de violence qui la révélera tantôt victime, tantôt bourreau. Entre cruauté et nostalgie, Les pénitences ressuscite l'enfance de deux fillettes sous la coupe d'un adulte dangereux aux lois arbitraires. Ce thriller à la prose fiévreuse, où le détail inquiétant et la menace imminente pulsent dans la lueur lavande des enregistrements VHS, montre les ramifications mentales, émotives et sexuelles des relations abusives et de la pauvretéSummer Rain - Back to you

So she could have a date on Valentine's Day -- a chance that, according to her admirer, Cassie couldn't waste.

responded, “Yes.” She smiled and slapped me on my left shoulder telling me, “Dream on my friend.” Later that year Andrea was taken from us by the most notorious serial killer to ever hunt in the state of Alaska. Get ready to collectively ride an emotional ride through urban Alaska while looking through a steamy window for lost love; love that's never found and love that maybe never was.
