The Barbarian Invasions

synopsis


Denys Arcand delivers a beautiful film with "The Barbarian Invasions", the story of a man on his deathbed who is joined by his distant son and all his closest friends throughout the last - wonderful and loving - days of his life. A follow-up to 1986's "The Decline Of The American Empire", the same characters from that movie reappear this time around. Now Remy (Remy Girard), the horny history teacher, is hospitalized and in pain. But at the urging of his wife Louise (Dorothee Berryman), Remy's son Sebastian (Stephane Rousseau) comes to his aid. Sebastian is a banker who tosses cash around, paying hospital administrators, union workers, Remy's former students, and even a local heroin dealer, to help make his father's last days of life as comfortable as possible. Along with this financial commitment also comes love, and the relationship between this father and son is touching.
