    At a wedding, Octavian, the bride’s uncle, sexually assaults one of his nephews. 6 years later the couple divorce, but Octavian, godfather to their twins, is still there with his secrets and the evil he does.

These extremely difficult subjects are wonderfully mitigated by the graphic choices Sandrine Revel made to represent abuse using silences and ellipses that bring even more force to the subject.
