Une maison à la campagne. Un jour de novembre. Silencieux, dans un coin du jardin, un enfant attend.

The emotional dilemmas of two sisters and their families sets the stage for the French drama Plus Qu'hier Moins Que Demain. Francoise (Laetitia Legrix) is a teenager who has grown tired of her hometown and her parents, while her older sister Sonia (Mireille Roussel) has come back home, with husband and child in tow. Sonia's unresolved issues with her family, including a relationship with her uncle that ended badly, trigger bouts of depression that previously led to a suicide attempt. Francoise, on the other hand, has fallen in love with her cousin Bernard (Pascal Cervo), whose father is the man who once loved Sonia and betrayed her father. Plus Qu'hier Moins Que Demain was shown at the 1999 Rotterdam Film Festival, where it won the Tiger Award in the New Director competition. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

劳伦·亚查德Laurent Achard迄今为止只执导过两部作品，07年《风葬的童年》摘得法国让·维果奖最佳影片以及最佳导演奖，这是一部结合了安东尼奥尼与达内兄弟的影片，既直白地写实又高度风格化。他的新作《最后一场电影》（Dernière Séance）则将“艺术电影”与意大利的B级恐怖片联系起来。主人公是外省一家“帝国影院”的放映员，这里放映的影片包括雷诺阿《法国康康舞》、香特尔阿克曼《迷恋》以及加斯范桑特《最后的日子》等等。每到夜晚，这名超级影迷放映员就会变成猎杀女性的连环杀手，割下她们的耳朵收集耳环。《最后一场电影》7日起在法国上映，虽然没能引起很大反响，但是《电影手册》以及Inrockuptibles两家艺术范的媒体还是给出了很高评价，称其为一部“布列松执导的阿基多电影”，在每一场戏中都能让人看见导演劳伦·亚查德过人的才华。

It’s summer and the beginning of the long vacation period for eleven-year-old Martin, who lives on a farm, and, at a loss, observes his family’s disintegration : his mother lives locked-up in her room ; his older brother, who he adores, drowns himself in drink ; and his father, dominated by Martin’s grandmother, is a helpless onlooker to the family’s collapse. Although Mistigri, his cat, and Malika, the Moroccan maid, afford him some comfort, Martin is determined to put an end to this confusion.
