The Kid with a Bike
Le gamin au vélo
directed by:
Jean-Pierre & Luc Dardenne with:
Thomas Doret, Cecile De France Cyril, almost 12, has only one plan: to find the father who left him temporarily in a children's home. By chance he meets Samantha, the town hairdresser, who agrees to let him stay with her on weekends. Cyril doesn't recognise the love Samantha feels for him, a love he desperately needs to calm his rage. A heart-wrenching, thematically and spiritually rich drama from the acclaimed Dardenne brothers
Winner of the Grand Prix at Cannes 2011
Must count as one of the best films about childhood since Kes – or for that matter Bicycle Thieves, to which it surely nods. Jonathan Romney ~ Screen Daily
