Frères d'armes

About This Movie

Frères d'armes presents a nuanced look at the complexities of young adult relationships, set against the isolated backdrop of a chalet. Édouard's birthday party takes a turn when his brother Max shows up, forcing tensions to the surface. The tone is heavy yet intimate, capturing the fragility of trust among friends. The film's pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of silence to hang, amplifying the unease that builds throughout. The performances are raw and convincing, especially in how they navigate the themes of boundaries and consent. It's this focus on interpersonal dynamics, combined with practical effects that ground the film, that really sets it apart in the drama genre. Not your typical coming-of-age story.
