CGiii Comment

A badly made documentary about a very important story.

Don't expect to see the perpetrators of this heinous crime being named and shamed - the story is told (redundantly) from the family and (pragmatically) from the lawyers.

More voice-overs than necessary and stagnant scenes of joggers really do make this painful viewing.

It is sterile and passionless.

Lawyers are seen to be the insensitive creatures that their profession dictates but, it is a film that is deeply flawed - may the makers be ashamed for producing such a mess.

Amateur and unworthy.

In 2002, three French neofascist skinheads went to a public park in Rheims looking for an 'Arab' to attack when they came across Francois Chenu, a young gay man.
