Jérémie Renier, Olivier Gourmet.
The breakthrough feature from Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne. The brothers brought their unerring eye for detail and their compassion for those on society's lowest rungs developed in their earlier documentary work to an absorbing drama about a teenager who is gradually coming to understand the implications of his father making a living off of illegal alien workers.
