Till Death Do Us Part

January 1970, in the countryside, not far from Montauban, France . Louis Riquier has custody of his children for the weekend and decides not to return them to their mother Lucianna . The younger ones are delighted to stay in the country house, which they transform into a fort, barricading doors and windows with the help of their father. Lucianna has filed a complaint but the gendarmerie Commander, Ducroix, stalls for time: he knows and appreci- ates Riquier who served under his command during the Algerian war. The media steps in . . .

What happens when media hype and fake news take center stage.

This film is associated with Jérôme Enrico’s Free Master Class and screening of his new documentary Robert Enrico, bref passage sur la Terre, taking place on Friday, March 29 in VCU’s Institute for Contemporary Art.
