The story of Twin brothers whom decided to visit their unknown mother funeral without the consent of their father and so they elope and on their adventure they encounter a lot of life learning situation. They are twins and are brothers, they trust and love each other. But their adventure lead them to learn the differences between the two of them, the differences that fractured their relationship as siblings. The movie could be entirely improve but then the whole screenplay for me it becomes a bland mime. Most of the scene are understandable by gestures, no lines, no words. But the silence becomes too much that some scene becomes a question. Examples are; The sex scene between Quentin and the farm lad it never explains if Quentin is gay or what?, How Quentin escape from the man whom paid Antoine 100 euros?, how did he reach the cemetery first before Antoine? The woman who rescued Antoine whom abused him? What was clear to me is at the end scene, they were reunited at last but their relationship has been damage already. They fought to relieve their hatred with each other but then Antoine drowned. The cries of Quentin in fear to lost his brother means compassion that whatsoever at the end they are still brothers and love still remains. When Antoine was relieve Quentin stands up, turn around and leave Antoine alone which means departure. Their experiences in their venture shaped them to be man on their own. And the end scene it emphasizes that the two of them at the end will have to live a separate lives.

A Bland Mime
Grandma laughs often. Do you think she is always happy?
"Two kids from a garden" as the chanson is telling us, sung by the remarkable Colette Magny (1963),are set to go into the world on a sentimental and mysterious journey in hopes to be at their mother's funeral, mother they never knew. The mixed and surprising characters they come across and interact with are absolutely fantastic.
Antoine and Quentin the handsome twins could not look more alike and be as different as day and night. They are used to people come and go into their lives bringing joy and pain. "Where are you going?" one of the twins asked, but there was no answer, she just kept walking away, it was the natural thing to do.
Life is a bunch of chances, "Que Sera, Sera" (Whatever Will Be, Will Be) and we are riding along this amazingly written, directed and acted independent film. The images are beautiful the soundtrack is hunting and the very close brothers are astounding. You don't want them to hurt each other or be separated, but they do and we care. They communicate through feelings and deep emotions, they sense each other even if they are not together. I wanted the film to keep going and going, to go across the universe and back, I would have never gotten tired riding along.
Subtle and moving
This movie made a very strong impression on me. It amazed me to see the other reviewer smashing it to smithereens. Clearly he/she did not get the point of the movie: the strange bond of twins, jealousy, betrayal. I found it profoundly moving and deeply sad. I highly recommend it for those who are interested in character development and not a splashy trashy film. The two brothers were extremely well played; the violence between the two of them seemed to indicate an unspoken attraction between the two of them. What is interesting that until it is made clear that the two are brothers, one could easily assume that they are lovers. The people they encounter on their journey serve only as catalysts to reinforce the depth of their strange bond.
