Le Havre is one of the quirkiest movies I have seen at DIFF over the past few years. The movie is about an old shoe-shiner with a sick wife, who one-day comes across a refugee boy being hunted by the law. The movie is short and makes good use of the situations and dialogues to keep it entertaining without ever becoming a comedy. This conscious treatment of the subject of the movie shows the mastery of the director over the cinematic medium. The movie never once digresses or loses pace, maintaining a very good-natured spirit through its short running time.
