Trailer For Quebecois Thriller JALOUX

[The French trailer for this appears to be missing part of the audio track. The Canadian version has things as the producer's intended. We've got the Canuck version below.]

Largely improvised over the course of its sixteen day shoot, Patrick Demers' thriller opened strong on the festival circuit, winning praise in Karlovy Vary and Toronto, amongst others. And now, with the Quebec theatrical release coming soon, the first trailer has arrived to give a taste to the rest of the world.

Here's how the Toronto festival described it:

Thomas and Marianne, a feuding couple whose relationship has hit a wall, decide to spend a weekend at Thomas's uncle's lakeside cottage. This is their last chance to save their relationship, which has been jeopardized by Marianne's meaningless flirtations and Thomas's uncontrollable jealousy. As they arrive, a restless yet charming neighbour welcomes them into their house and, realizing that Thomas's uncle and girlfriend will not be showing up for days, suggests they share the dinner he has prepared. The drunken night that follows - with this man, who might not be who he seems to be, pushing his charms on Marianne - leads to a weekend of blurred emotions and events, where loyalties, guilt and a shared secret will test the young couple's ability to survive.

The trailer is impressive stuff, beautifully shot and edited to a striking piece of music. Very nice indeed. Sophie Cadieux, Benoît Gouin, and Maxime Denommée star.
