The Origin of Evil

“Someone is lying.”

Nathalie (Laure Calamy) is a modest young woman who has just learned the name of the wealthy father she never knew, Serge (Jacques Weber). She goes to his seaside villa and meets his extravagant wife, his ambitious daughter, a rebellious teenager and a maid who watches everyone. Sébastien Marnier frames the house in cool, glossy compositions and lets the dread seep in slowly.
