In The House (Dans la Maison)

'In The House' is one of those quirky French films that works for them and that Hollywood can rarely seem to successfully replicate.

A Literature teacher becomes intrigued by the writings of one of his young students whose homework about how he spends his weekends reveals that the 16 year old has worked his way into the lives of his schoolmate's family.

The plot skims across some vaguely homoerotic moments and the student's behaviour, apparently all innocence initially, becomes somewhat unsettling.
