About The Ankou, the Child and the Bandits
A widowed and bankrupt farmer is being harassed by crooked creditors. Cornered, he steals a large sum of money from them to offer his daughter a future he cannot guarantee anymore. Knowing all too well the mob will not let this pass, the farmer finds refuge in his beliefs and summons the Ankou - Death's henchman in Brittany - to offer his life in exchange for his daughter's protection.
Directed by Simon Vautier, The Ankou, the Child and the Bandits leans on a strong ensemble — Jonathan Lambert, Charlotte Vautier, Guillaume Verdier — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about western titles of 2022.
