Blessures Assassines (Murderous Maids) by Jean-Pierre Denis, 2000
With Sylvie Testud, Julie-Marie Parmentier and Isabelle Renauld...
"On February 2nd 1933, in the town of Le Mans, in the West of France, two sisters, Christine Papin, 27, and her younger sister Léa Papin, 21, brutally killed their employer Mrs. Ancelin and her daughter Geneviève. Why did they commit this horrifying murder? As a result of an unhappy childhood? Because they couldn't stand any more being commanded and exploited by arrogant bourgeois employers ? Because their incestuous relationship had been surprised? The film tries to answer these questions and make us understand why and how the two sisters turned from meek sheep to bloody monsters." IMDB
Really bothering, deranging... I was traumatized by the hyper-realism of the movie. I don't know if I liked the movie, and for sure, I didn't spend a nice moment at all. It was too much.
