Sebastien (George Babluani), a clean-faced 20-year-old who lives an impoverished life with his immigrant family, is hired to repair the roof of the morphine-addicted Godon (Philippe Passon). The old man dies before Sebastien can be paid, but not before the boy overhears a conversation that seems to promise easy money. He impulsively decides to follow the instructions meant for Godon and see where they lead him.

The terrible game of life is boiled down to its essentials in this new film from 26-year-old Georgian director Gela Babluani, who makes a stunning debut with what might yet become a classic.
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian -
Georgian Géla Babluani impresses in this taut, black-and-white thriller debut.
Total Film -
Gela has debuted with an impressively noirish moral fable that, for all its bleakness, offers ample rewards to those willing to take a chance on it.
