They don't learn. Time and again they get themselves into all kinds of trouble taking home exotic animals, which by the demands of both logic and script, end up escaping. And what is more, in this case it turns out to be a spider. A poisonous one. There is a reason why they inspired such horror and fascination in Luis Buñuel himself. A blockbuster to open the 34th Festival. A blockbuster which closed the Semaine de la Critique in May and in Cannes. A blockbuster with giant spiders invading not the Champs Elysées, but the banlieue, the bidonvilles. A socially and politically raging blockbuster. A blockbuster made by someone who was born where it was filmed, in Seine-Saint-Denis. A blockbuster by someone who never studied at any film school. Another proletarian of the cinema world. Like Stéphan, who made Vincent Must Die.
