Dans la maison (2013, 105 minutes, French with English subtitles)
A depressed literature teacher has his enthusiasm reignited by the voyeuristic and unsettling writing of a mysterious and brilliant student. As teacher and pupil confer, the line between reality and fiction blurs as the boy works his way into the lives of a middle class family, all for the sake of a good story. François Ozon’s Dans la maison is a frothy yet complex piece that explores the nature of narrative, perception and reality.
