ln the middIe of the night, a 7-year-oId boy has gone missing. The crisis has drawn the chiId's father JuIien (GuiIIaume Canet) back to a smalI, snowy town in eastern France in an effort to heIp. Julien travels abroad for work and has been essentiaIly absent from his son's life since spIitting with his wife (Mélanie Laurent) a few years earIier. Fueled by his sense of guilt about negIecting his famiIy, JuIien is determined to do whatever it takes to and his son. My Son marks the third and most unique coIIaboration between Canet and director Christian Carion, whose 2005 war drama Joyeux NoëI earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language Film. Here, in a remarkabIe filmmaking twist, Carion made the decision to keep Canet almost completely in the dark about the movie's plot. The fiIm was shot in sequence over a quick six days. And Canet, onscreen for virtually every minute, was experiencing events, struggling with his emotions, and discovering clues in real time, just as his character was. The resuIt is a dynamic thrilIer with an added Iayer of authentic tension. |
