Les Eblouis - Film - Sarah Suco - 2019
Camille is a schoolgirl from a Catholic family. Her parents are gradually being drawn into a sect. The cult leader, known as the "shepherd", takes Camille away from her teenage life: she has to give up the circus, change clothes... He also makes Christine, the mother of the family, believe that she has been the victim of incest by her father, in order to break the link with her parents. Camille refuses criticism from outsiders and protects her parents as she watches them become radicalized. The teenager goes to them for help when she sees her brother being sexually abused by a parishioner, but is accused of lying. To save her siblings and break free from the psychological hold, she goes to the police and reveals everything. The story, inspired by a true story, deals aptly with the conflict of loyalties a child can face.
