About Le Pays des ours
The desperate wandering of three persons at bay. Gérard Maubuisson, a fifty-six-year-old firm manager, decides to close up shop and to leave his wife. Geneviève Maubuisson, his wife, goes round in circles in her apartment, at a loss for news from him. There is also Henri, a disillusioned surgeon, who sleeps with the wives of some of his patients and conducts illegal euthanasia...
Directed by Jean-Baptiste Léonetti, Le Pays des ours leans on a strong ensemble — Aurélien Recoing, Jenny Arasse, Dominique Paturel — 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 drama titles of 2003.
