The Acting was incredible, the plot a little unbeleivable, but the message was strong.
In my mind, this movie is about sperate people struggling with seperate issues who are hopelessly intwined with one another.
I think the most important story is Luc's, who is forced by situations out of his control to deal with his sexuality, and his feelings for Alice; which he never would have done otherwise. This story speaks to us about how even horrible things that we do or have happen to us can help us evolve as individuals and confront parts of our selves that we'd rather just make go away.
This movie reminded me of Timothy Findley's "The Wars". The theme is self discovery and innocence in the midst of horror.
