La promesse (1996)

English title: The Promise.

Synopsis: An adolescent boy helps his father in his business of exploiting illegal immigrants. When one of the workers die, the man's wife becomes a threat and a conflict arises between the boy and his father, with the boy taking the side of the woman.

Appraisal: The usual fare from these filmmakers; mildly interesting conflicts, competent direction of actors, slightly unrealistic behavior immersed in a socially realistic context.
