Six Days, Six Nights - 1994 - France

Six Days, Six Nights - 1994 - 6/10
AKA - À la Folie

 
Elsa reaches the breaking point.  Indifferent husband, annoying children, empty pantry.
Heading out for a few groceries, she keeps going.
Until she arrives in Paris, where her painter / artist sister, Alice lives.
With her boxer boyfriend.
Don’t expect a ménage à trois.  And instead of tense sibling rivalry, expect toxic rivalry.
Apparently since childhood, the girls have baited, played mind games, resorted to physical violence.
Less talky than most French fare, this is mean-spirited to the core.
Most puzzling is wondering why one tolerates the other.
