LES ENFANTS TERRIBLES

Jean Cocteau

Directed by Josh Gelb

“The joy of youth is to disobey, but the trouble is that there are no longer any orders…”

In 1929 Jean Cocteau penned the acclaimed Les enfants terribles over three weeks whilst recovering from an opium addiction. A tragic thriller, Cocteau’s work tells of two sibling adolescents, Paul and Elisabeth, who escape the mundane adult world through an increasingly sinister series of fantastical twists they call “The Game.” This adaptation of Cocteau’s 1950 screenplay explores the delirious contradictions of our modern technological world.
