The extraordinary story of a boy's ascendance to grace.
Hailed by critics everywhere as one of the top ten films of the year, La Promesse is the extraordinary story of a boy's ascendance to grace.
Under the conscienceless guidance of his father (Olivier Gourmet as Roger), fifteen-year old Igor appears destined to a life of petty crime. All changes, however, when Igor delivers an uncompromising promise to Hamidou- an immigrant who while working illegally for Roger accidentally falls to his death. As Roger scrambles to cover up the accident, Igor suddenly finds himself torn between his loyalty to Roger and the agreement he made with Hamidou.
Suspicious of Roger's motivation and intimately drawn to the heart of his promise, Igor must choose between his love for his father and the demands of his awakening conscience.
