MALDOROR

Fabrice du Welz

maldoror

Following the disappearance of two little girls, a Belgian police officer embarks on a hunt that will lead him to a paedophile ring.

After his Ardennes trilogy, which examined the dark side of Wallonia, Fabrice du Welz revisits the great trauma of the 1990s, the Dutroux affair, a swirling eddy of criminal and political collusion that left an indelible mark on an entire country. A champion of visceral cinema, du Welz delivers his most ambitious work yet, a wide-reaching thriller, superbly acted by its cast. Anthony Bajon confirms his ability to immerse himself in his characters and navigate from one genre film to another.
