Vaurien

61st TIFF: Greek premiere

Djé has just set foot in the faceless megacity. He has no money or a place to stay but is equipped with a malicious and irresistible charm. He is a chameleon that adapts to all environments, seducing his way to the hearts of people. Drawing inspiration from the stories of real-life serial killers in the Parisian 90s, comes this portrait of a devil who lurks on human weakness disguised as an angel.
