Everyone is unhappy in their own way. Realistic movie. Confluence of circumstances - and now the boy, afraid to step on the toad, so as not to crush it, becomes a thief.
The magnificent disclosure of each character of the film honors its creators, as writers, there and specialists in the selection of actors. And the wonderful music accompanying the film will not leave anyone indifferent.
In the announcement, the genre is declared as a thriller, but I will allow myself to disagree. First and foremost, “The Thief” is a drama. The drama of both one person - the main character Alex, who was magnificently played by Olivier Tuinier - and all the other characters of the film.
Alex’s grandmother, Rosa, is afraid of getting into a nursing home and therefore does not want to inform the police about the robbery, not knowing what tests she will expose her grandson because of this.
Alex’s mother is a woman who dreams of losing weight, ready to drink vinegar for this.
Alex's father is an unsuccessful seller of various things in the first place for whom work and profit are worthwhile, not paying due attention to his son.
Alex's tormentors are two brothers living with their mother and stepfather, constantly attacked by the latter.
The mother of Alex’s torturers is a woman who dreams of improving her personal life, but constantly suffers humiliation from her partner.
The stepfather of Alex’s tormentors is a cruel man, more important than anything else for whom his dog, who, nevertheless, will play a key role.
PS. Like Alex, I don’t like dogs. Since childhood.
