Since the death of their parents, while they were still teenagers, Jéremie and Maxime live alone together in an old manor at the edge of the sea. It's the sole remaining link with their family roots. Over the years, Jéremie, taking on the role of big brother and father, has continually looked after Maxime, who is still affected by the accident. Like wounded galloping horses, they have to face their destiny and confront death in order to recover their identity and be at peace with themselves.
Directed by Mateo Guez, Le dernier jour leans on a strong ensemble — Mateo Guez, Maxime Desmons, Anne Berlan — 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 1996.
