À l'intérieur (2007)
Four months after the death of her husband, a woman on the brink of motherhood is tormented in her home by a strange woman who wants her unborn baby.
Graphic intruder horror thriller with some sense for atmosphere and intelligently told.
Project Nim (2011)
Tells the story of a chimpanzee taken from its mother at birth and raised like a human child by a family in a brownstone on the upper West Side in the 1970s.
A documentary about a naive and amateurishly conceived science experiment telling a sad and depressing story and sheds more light on the mental state of the humans involved in the project than on the chimpanzee's behaviour.
