L'enfant d'en haut

Synopsis

The stark beauty of the Swiss Alps offers little warmth to twelve-year-old Simon, who navigates its wealthy ski resorts not as a guest, but as a silent pilferer. He meticulously steals from the unsuspecting tourists, his nimble fingers supplying a fragile lifeline for himself and his older sister, Louise. Their bond, a complex weave of dependency and unspoken sacrifice, is the true landscape of *L'enfant d'en haut*. As Simon's heists grow bolder, the emotional stakes for their intertwined existence escalate, threatening to expose their hidden world and shatter the only family they know.
