Lilies (1996)Lilies - Les feluettes
Lilies, an extravagantly mannered revenge fantasy, opens in a men's prison in Northern Quebec in 1952. A certain Bishop Bilodeau (Marcel Sabourin) is lured into hearing the confession of a dying prisoner, Simon Doucet (Aubert Pallascio), only to be held captive by the gay contingent of the prison and forced to watch their re-enactment of a play. This play, however, soon turns into the story of a lethal gay triangle set in a Catholic boy's school 40 years earlier, involving an 18-year-old Bilodeau (Matthew Ferguson), Simon (Jason Cadieux) and doomed third party Vallier (Danny Gilmore). As the prison walls melt away, the richly imagined land of Roberval reveals a shimmering tale of lost love between two young men. - Director:

John River (Stellan Skarsgärd) is a gifted police officer with a secret. As a man haunted by manifestations of the dead, including a tormenting killer, Thomas Cream (Eddie Marsan) and the murder victims whose secrets he must unlock, he walks a tightrope between maintaining respectability at work and managing his own fragile state of mind. His colleague and confidant, Detective Sergeant Jackie Stevie Stevenson (Nicola Walker) lends River the emotional support he so badly needs, whilst his boss, Chief Inspector Chrissie Reid (Lesley Manville) is conflicted between River s obvious talents and his evident problems. Adrift in a London full of other exiled souls, River's own isolation helps him connect with the troubled victims who crash into his world, and to see the truth in ways his colleagues are drawn to admire and question, in equal measure. But as his long-held defences are eroded by love and loss, River is torn between the living and the dead; will he have to choose once and for all? - Director:
