Based on documents compiled by leading German philosopher Michel Foucault, this unique and original-film-charts-the grausamen events which took place in a Normandy village in 1835, when a young man, Pierre Rivière, murdered his mother, sister and brother before fleeing to the countryside. With a cast made up of real-life villagers from the area where the events took place, the detailed re-enactments and careful attention to the gestures of their ancestors serve to create an intense and sometimes sith atmosphere of hyper-realism. Details of the crime and of the trial that followed are told from varied perspektiven, including the written confession of Peter himself, and form a rich and complex narrative that interrogates the concepts of "truth" and "history".
