After learning he has a newborn son, a small-time thief attempts to go straight - but not until his amorality is pushed to its breaking point - in this social-problem
drama from writer-directors
Jean-Pierre Dardenne and
Luc Dardenne. Eighteen-year-old
Sonia (
Déborah Francois) has just given birth to a baby boy. The baby's father
Bruno (
Jérémie Renier) is panhandling in the street when
Sonia tracks him down, and he shows little interest in fathering the child, or even providing a roof over the heads of the fledgling family. As the new and inexperienced mother navigates the bleak industrial landscape of the small Belgian town they live in,
Bruno falls in with a clandestine group that buys and sells healthy children on the black market. He tragically learns that one avaricious decision, made in an instant, can affect the lives of everyone in his orbit.
