So this is where you wanted to take me!
Look, they’re here. Okay, we’ll grab one for each of the students. They won’t hurt them?
But no. But no. Don’t worry. We’ll put them in a jar for each one
and then we’ll study them and draw them. If you want, you can draw me one too…
Aaaaaah…! Mr. Leblanc? Mr. Leblanc!
Eric… Quick… Go, go get it… I told you not to hang out with him. There’s
nothing we can do for him now. It’s over, there’s nothing more to do. For me, it’s a heart attack.
All that remains is to establish the burial permit. Okay, Chief?
Yes, but… What do you want me to do about it?
That’s called the law of series, right?!
Doctor? For me it is a
completely natural death. Good…
Very good…
Hello, are you the new teacher? !
Yes… Excuse me, I had to go
to the Town Hall to pick up the keys. Hello…
You’ll like it here, you’ll see. The municipality even
bought computers last year. Oh well then… And the children,
did they see anyone? Someone ?! What do you mean?
Well, a doctor or a shrink. A teacher dying overnight
is quite a trauma. That’s a good idea from the
city people! It’s less complicated here, eh! Well, I see…
Well, then I have to go. This one… this is the key to the, to the class… there.
And this one is the key to the official apartment , it’s the little brown door,
under the balcony, first floor. So. Good.
Bye. Bye.
Good day. Sunday is under the sign of the sun…
It is also a sign of good hope and happiness.
And when it rains? Even when it rains, it’s like that…
Monday, all day, is under the sign of the moon.
Tuesday is March. Wednesday is Mercury… It is a bad planet
that presides over illnesses and losses. Dad?
Hmm? Yesterday was Wednesday?
Yes, why? So it’s normal that Mr.
Leblanc died suddenly. Hello!…
Yes! … Ah…
Now if you want… We’ll continue the lesson later.
Come on, let’s go to the Bardins’.  Say dad?
What else? Is it true that you teach me
the same things as in school? But yes, and I’m going to teach you
some others, and much more beautiful ones. So why don’t you make me
draw frogs? Good morning.
Hello, my name is Kevin. Hi Kevin.
Good morning. So I ‘m Sylvia. I am the new teacher.
All right ! You can go play if you want. Sorry, Miss… It’s good, for once,
they, they, found a replacement quickly… Monique Bardin.
This is Julien, my son. I, I wanted to tell you… he
‘s a little fragile. He has asthma… So he sometimes misses…
Okay. We’ll work it out. Eh. You know with all these changes
of teachers, it’s, it’s difficult for him to keep up.
What do you mean? Well, well, yes, it’s unfortunate to say,
but you’re the fourth in two years. Ah good.
Hmm… Okay.
I’ll leave you, eh! Come on…
Come on, go to class. The vet said there was
nothing he could do. What do you think about it? Evil is strong…
Eric… Isn’t Julien here?
No, he’s at school today. Ah! We
have to see on the threshold now. A toad!
Damn it! So that was it! You’ll have to throw it into the fire… yourself. So.
If it’s not better tomorrow, I’ll come back… Here, I just made it for your lunch.
Well. THANKS. Eric! Eric! come on…
Here! You know I don’t want to be paid!
It’s not for you, it’s for… You’ll give it to him if it works. Come on.
Oh shit! It’s closed.
Every afternoon? Gontier has two stores, this one and the one
in Malvière. He decided to hold them all by himself… So obviously
he can’t be both at the same time! Oh yes.
Are you passing through? No, I’m the new teacher.
Oh very good! Sylvia Lebert.
Jean-Baptiste Tufféry. I have a farm at the entrance to the forest. What did you need?
All. The kitchen light bulb blew out, I couldn’t find any candles in the cupboards,
I don’t like canned food. Well, anyway. I invite you. My mother will be very happy to have
someone for dinner who doesn’t like canned food. Ah! Well. That’s very kind…
I don’t want to disturb. Eh. Come on, it’s not difficult. You take
the road to Malvière… Um, my farm is the first one at the entrance to the village.
Ha, ha. You can’t go wrong,
there is no other. Arrival at the Croix du Fau. My predecessor
died suddenly of a heart attack. Friendly welcome for children.
December 3. December 21, a child in the village is
not attending school. His name is Eric Tufféry.
Tufféry…? December 23, met Eric’s father.
Funny guy. He is said to be a healer. He claims to be teaching his
son himself. I can’t do anything, it’s his right. Eric, come see!
You see those leaves, on the oak tree there. It’s oak mistletoe. This mistletoe has a
magical property. He opens all the locks. You see, trees are alive too.
Everything is alive in nature, even the earth, even the sky.
Look carefully son… Fill your heart with beauty… February 15th, I started a portrait of Eric. He has
a fascinating face. I don’t see him much anymore, I think his father wants to keep him away
from me. I don’t understand what this man has in his head. He might be crazy.
April 13, narrowly avoided an accident on the national road. It’s probably those damn…
headaches, but I… feel oppressed. I have anxieties, as if something is threatening me.
May 2, saw Eric again. He seemed happy to see me. Tomorrow we’ll go fishing for… ”
distaff?”…frog! Frog together. Who is this again?
She looks like mom. Stop talking nonsense. And
go get me my sock. What?
I already have the blue one, you have to go get me the black one. Thank you. You must be Miss Lebert.
My son warned me. Come in then. It’s beautiful, huh… I didn’t expect
to find such a big farm at all. It dates from the 18th century. There were
up to two hundred animals here in the past. And now?
We have about sixty of them, they are further away, in the stable that my son had
built. But Jean-Ba will tell you about all that. Jean-Ba? !
Yes ? This is Miss Lebert.
OK if you want. We’re waiting for tomorrow. Two points for cereal
in two days is a lot. All right.
All right. Excuse me, I’m almost done.
OK, we’ll do it like this then, tomorrow, we’ll wait until tomorrow.
Alright.  See you tomorrow. Are
you surfing the internet? Yes. I’m following the grain prices…
With everything that’s going on, we have to think about diversifying… maybe start
raising organic chickens.  Let me introduce you to my grandfather and my
grandmother. It was their wedding day. This is Auguste Tufféry, the grandfather.  He was the one who
founded the farm. He had a funny look…
He was a funny guy! It is said that he knew how to talk to animals.
And your parents? My mother is a Tufféry, an
only child. I am named after the Tufférys because she never wanted to get married. And that
didn’t help the family’s reputation. This is my brother Roland!
And the little boy? This is Eric, his son.
What is he doing? My brother has been a little crazy for the past five years. He
thinks he’s being attacked by spirits, by, by spells… You won’t be stronger than me.
You won’t be stronger than me. You won’t be stronger than me.
He repeats this number every night. And Eric?
That’s the problem! He introduces her to all this bullshit. He
keeps it in a vacuum. Eric doesn’t have a friend… Mind you, I’m not throwing stones at Roland.
With the amount of misfortune he’s had… I might have gone crazy too…
And his wife? She is dead. She was seriously ill with
nervous disorders. A delusion of persecution… She was treated for that, but it wasn’t enough… She hanged herself.
THANKS. What do you plan to do for Eric?
I tried to get her guardianship, but you know how state agencies are!
They need lots of evidence. But we fight. I hope to get custody…
Separating a child from his father. It’s not always… It’s not always the best solution…
I think my mother really liked you… Why are you telling me that?
…It’s not easy, you know! She’s a little… possessive!
A woman who makes a porcini mushroom omelet this well can’t be all bad!
What is this? Well, it’s candles, a few
light bulbs. Um, I understand that you… That’s really sweet. You
think of everything, huh. How can I thank you now?
By giving me permission to see you again. You know where to find me.
Come on ! Good morning !
Good morning ! Good morning !
Good morning. Come on, come on, let’s sit down and be quiet, eh?
Take off your hat. Put down your things. Sit down.
Well today we’re going to do a little bit of math.
Ooooh! What the hell is this! Complain!
You’re lucky to go to school! Yeah ?
Hello, um… I’m here to pick up Mr. Leblanc’s things. So you see the brown door there. It’s
on the first floor and I put everything in boxes. All right. THANKS.
THANKS. Bye. Do you want to
talk about Mr. Leblanc? Do you have any questions for me or not?
No, no, we mustn’t talk about it. Why, Cecile?
Because we shouldn’t talk about these things… Leave it, Eric. It’s too hard for you, I tell you!
I’m big, Dad, I can help you. Come on, let me help you, Roland!
I’ll get the spreader. We don’t need you. We
both do very well together. Look at the little one! He can’t take it anymore!
Okay, listen. If you came to give me advice, you can leave.
I don’t need you, I tell you. You’re crossing the line, Roland!
How are you, little wolf? Not too hard? Oh yes.
Here, this is for you. What do we say?
Thank you, Grandma. You’re a good little guy.
Come on, go quickly now or you ‘ll get told off. And above all, you don’t say
anything to your dad about the sweets, right? You scared me…
Did you tame him? Can I pet him or not?
Oh, how sweet he is… What’s his name? Chestnut.  Chestnut
!
It’s pretty. And you’re Eric…
And I’m Sylvia. I am the one replacing Mr. Leblanc at school. Did
you know Mr. Leblanc? Is that what interests you? It’s a violin.
You want to try it! So go ahead. Look.
So, it is worn like this under the chin. Your hand, your hand, you put it a little over there. So.
And there you take the archer. So.
No, no, no, you put your hand down. So. Who is he?
This is Yvan. Is he dead?
How do you know that?  Shall I walk you home?
Well, uh. As you wish. I will come back to play the violin
in the clearing. Will you come? Mom, I saw the lady who
replaces Mr. Leblanc. She makes music. I would like to
see her again. I like it. But I’m afraid something bad will happen to him
… Like the others… Dad?
Hmm? I would like to go to school.
Is it because I bring bad luck to others? Is that why I can’t go?
What put such a thing into your head? Of course not!
Come here. You know, if I don’t want you to go
to school, it’s for your own good. At school we learn things but
above all we learn to want to be the strongest, to always want more. We start to covet
what others have, we become bad. What’s up? Are you not comfortable here with
me? Eh? Aren’t we both okay? If!
Well then?! So leave the others where they are. But how will I learn music?
Who told you about music? Person!
You won’t be stronger than me. If I had called the vet, what
more would he have done, eh? I should have cut it in half, like they do now!
Come here. Get underneath. Take his head. So. Keep it up.
Gently. Dad! I did it!
You see, son, the two of us will always be stronger than them.
Come on, come here, my friend. Come here.  So. What are you doing here?
I came to talk to you. Is this my son? It’s no.
Oh, but not at all, it’s for… I was told that you know how to treat warts.
It’s useless, you’re wasting your time. I was assured that it was…
I can’t do anything for you. For what?
Because… you don’t believe it! For it to work you have to believe in it.
But I just want to see! What to see!
You need proof, results. People like you only believe in
science! Science! We have to see where this takes us. You better think about your son!
What will become of him if he remains ignorant all his life like this?! Have you thought about it?
I teach him myself, that’s quite enough! …
But you won’t always be there! How will he do it alone?
Go away! Get the hell out! Leave us alone.
Stop, Dad, stop! And don’t try to
sneak up on the little one, otherwise…! You are sick!
You won’t get there like that. What do you want
me to do? I can’t force him! Perhaps you could give
your testimony to the DDASS… No! Don’t count on me for that!
So face off against Roland. Others have tried before you.
And then? They are no longer here to talk about it today!
You just have to ask around… March 25, I have tried several times
to ask questions about my predecessor, no one in the village wants to talk about his death.
March 28, the mayor didn’t want to tell me anything. April 4, called the rectorate. In fact he had
only been there for three months. The previous teacher had managed to get himself transferred during the year
for personal reasons. I couldn’t find out more. What does it hide?
Eric. Eric?
Come on, it’s over! You’re mean! You’re the one who’s mean! Are
you coming?  Am I disturbing you?
But no. Come in. At the town hall, we probably imagine
that the teachers live like nuns because they call it “furnished accommodation”!
Small towns like ours are not very rich, you know.
We are already at the “you”. Oh ! Pardon! It escaped me.
Maybe it’s that I feel really good with… with you.
“Do you” want something to drink? As you wish,
then settle down. I’ll get what I need.
It looks similar, doesn’t it? It was Leblanc who did it. Hey…
I think he was really interested in Eric. You too, right?
How do you know? Otherwise you wouldn’t have stayed
with him in the forest.  I’m being spied on!
No, I was there by chance, I saw you, that’s all.
Why didn’t you come? Eric seems to really like you… He
really misses his mom… Oh I see you coming!
Your mother has already asked me to take your side. Now
you’re the one who shows up with a floury face… Oh, but not at all! But
what do you imagine? It was by chance that we talked about Eric.
I can’t imagine anything. It’s just that… What?
What… I feel terribly embarrassed when I feel that a man is interested in me.
If I tell you that I haven’t stopped thinking about you since we saw each other. What… What are
you doing? Are you, are you throwing your drink in my face?
As long as I’m here, he won’t have you…
“He”, always “he”… If only we knew who he was!
That’s the rule! Even when you know the spell caster, you don’t say his name. That’s how it is.
So you know who it is! He will soon be relieved.
He needs to rest. Can I stay a little?
Yes.  What is it like at school?
Again! I’ve told you this many times before. No, not with the new mistress. You went to her house, didn’t you?!
Hmm, hmm. And then?  Do you like her?
She can help us. She has a good relationship with the little one. The sooner
he gets back to normal the better… That’s a good excuse! !  Do
n’t forget. As soon as we have the little one, you’ll have to move him away.
I brought you something. Look. Well, what is
it? It’s just a book. Dad doesn’t want me to touch books…
How does he teach you to read then? Well, with the calendars,
the ads and… the boxes. What about the boxes?
Yes, for example: Camembert de Normandie made from raw milk. Fat: 45%. Made
in Isigny, a four nine two zero Calvados. That’s very good, except that you know
in books there are very, very beautiful stories. For example, there is
a story about a big magical deer. Do you want me to tell you about it? So come on!
It’s called: The Great Golden Deer. “At that time, deep in the
forest, there lived a large deer with a golden coat. He was the leader of the herd. His silky hair
glittered in the sun like threads of gold. His long eyelashes were the color of the sky, they were
turquoise. His eyes shone, they looked like pearls set with pale blue sapphires. His large
antlers resembled the red coral that adorns women’s ears…”
Come here! I told you to leave him alone.
But you have to get him out of his isolation, otherwise you’ll make him autistic!
Don’t try to see him again, otherwise… Otherwise? Otherwise you will leave the country…
one way or another! You don’t scare me. I’ll see you again
Eric, whether you like it or not! You’re a liar! You do
n’t deserve what I’m doing for you! From now on, you will stay here.
It’s Sunday… I’m taking you to mass… No, I was just kidding.
Between! Well… I was thinking that maybe you were bored
like that all alone on Sunday mornings. I have quite a bit of work, but I’m taking
a little break. Oh, but it’s freezing in here. I’m going to make a fire.
You probably haven’t made fires often in your life, eh!
What ! I have always lived in public housing. Let me do it.
Oh well, but I’m going to get
some wood from the cellar. SO. Sylvia, Sylvia!
Sylvia! Sylvia!
Sylvia! Sylvia!
Sylvia! Oh la la la, what’s happening to me?
It’s nothing, remember, you went down to get some wood. Do you remember?
Yes. And then you must have fainted.
My head, this is the first time this has happened to me!
You left too soon. I don’t know what to do anymore to protect the little one.
If you only knew how much we miss you! You’ve gone too far, Roland. Leave me alone!
You’re not going to keep attacking teachers like that! You’ll have to
come to your senses! The reason! You’re the one who talks to me about reason,
while you obey like a sheep everything that crazy old woman says. Do
n’t talk about the mother like that!  She’s not my mother anymore. She thought that all she had to do was
get rid of my wife to get the boy back. But no! I swear I won’t, or you’ll
have to go through me too! Go ahead! Shoot!
Get out of here!… Get out of here! You’re wrong not to shoot
Roland. You’ll regret it. It’s you and your teacher who are going to regret it.
This time it’s war, Roland!… to the death! Come on son, I need you.
No! You’re going to hurt Sylvia. I don’t want to! They’re going to cast a spell on us.
We need to protect ourselves. Remember what I
told you, if we are together, they can’t do anything to us.
I don’t care. I want to see Sylvia. Don’t wait for me for dinner.  Does this happen to you often?
What? To jump on the new arrivals.
No! That is to say, there are not
often new people coming here! That. That’s disgusting!
And if you told me a little bit about yourself. Oh la la. I wouldn’t even know
where to start. My mother left when I was five. I was raised by
my father who was a truck driver, so I saw
the nannies more often than him. I understand better.
What? Your reluctance to see Eric separated from his father.
My father drank. They said he hit my mother and that was why she
left, but I don’t believe it. So the well-meaning neighbors told me I was
a child martyr so they reported it. I was in foster care and then…
a few years later he died of cancer. I still blame the judge who separated us.
My host family was very good to me, but well… Now I’m alone in the world.
Not even a boyfriend? I don’t want to talk about that.
Do I matter to you at all? I don’t know yet.
Go. Go get busy and I’ll be right there. I’m coming ! Jean-Ba? Jean-Ba? Jean-Ba? Oh no!
You’ve heard of Auguste Tufféry. He was a very, very old grandfather of ours. To you too.
Augustus, he had the gift: He spoke to animals, he could light a fire
from a distance, he could heal, return lost affection and many other things. It is, it is
this gift that we all have more or less in the family. When Jean-Ba and I were little, Victoire,
your grandmother, saw that I had it and she wanted to use me, to
harm people, to have more land, to have more money by robbing
others. So I refused. I wanted to use my gift to heal. When she saw
that I wasn’t giving in, she rejected me. She went to get the books, the grandfather’s books
where you learn to do evil by magic. She gave the books to Jean-Ba and together
they learned to do evil. And now they are as strong as I am, because they
have the knowledge of books and I don’t… Until today, I managed to
keep them in check because you were with me, well, your heart was with me. And since you
met that woman, the teacher… You’ve moved away… On the other hand, I can’t do anything about that.
Listen to me son, you have the gift as strong as Grandpa Auguste. You are the only heir.
That’s why they want you. Because you, with the gift and knowledge of
books, will be very powerful. And they will use this power for evil.
Only I don’t want you to know evil. When we do evil, we become unhappy.
I want you to be happy. Whatever happens, remember what I told you!
But you’re going to stay with me, Dad?! Ah!!! Ah!!!
You won’t get me! You won’t have my son!
Get out of here! You won’t get me!
You won’t have my son! Dad! Dad!
Dad! Dad! Eric, get out, get out.
Eric, it’s no use. Dad!
Dad! … Dad! I’m coming !
This is my Dad! He’s sick! You have to come. Your father needs to go get treatment!
Come on, let him go! No! I want to stay with my Dad!…
Listen to me carefully. Listen to me! It’s no use, okay! Will we go see him
in the hospital when he’s better? I want my Dad!
You stay with us. Maybe I can keep him
with me for a few days, if you like? Certainly not.
You’ll see, we’ll take good care of you. You’ll be like a cock in dough.
No, I don’t want to, I don’t want to. Come on, that’s enough now.
So, doctor? These black marks on the arms… I’ve
never seen that. Honestly, I don’t know. Will he make it?
I really can’t say anything. We have to wait for the results of the analyses. Shall
we meet at the hospital? THANKS. I am the ambulance.
Look, I made fries especially for you. It’s good! Taste.
Taste. SO ?
They can’t say anything yet. We need to do some analysis.
He doesn’t want to eat anything! Look Eric! I brought you something.
Don’t you want to open it? So… colored pencils… notebook…
coloring book… pencil case. You’re going to have fun!
Come on, let’s go home! Good morning.
Good morning. SO ! Happy to go to school? Do
you have any news from Roland? They haven’t found anything yet.
But his condition is stable. Come on, I’ll come back and get it.
Wait! Um, please. Well then. You can go and
meet the others if you want. I think there is a misunderstanding. The photo
you found in the violin case is from the past. It’s the past, the past
that still matters, right? Yvan died two years ago in a
car accident. So obviously, I thought I would never get over it, but…
now I know I’ve grieved. How do you know that?
Because otherwise I would n’t have been able to sleep with you.
As for Eric, don’t worry, I’ll bring him back. Come on, let’s go home!
Well then, I present to you Eric who from today will go to
school like you and I ask you please to give him a very warm welcome.
Look, you’re going to settle down there. But Madam, this is Julien’s place. Well, it doesn’t matter that
today, Julien isn’t here… Okay then, you take your
geography books and open them to page 38. You look carefully at the picture.
And Eric, please tell me what you see. Well Eric! Eric?!
He’s Mongolian, madam! That’s why.
You want to shut up! It’s time! Bye
!  Bye !
You have nothing to tell me? We’re friends, right? No.
For what? Because you’re friends with Uncle Ba.
And then? Uncle Ba is mean! Did
he hurt you? Answer me sincerely.  Did
he hurt you or not? No.
Well then! You see. I know that Jean-Ba loves you
very much, and that he wants the best for you. He even took you to school
and that’s good, right?! No! At school I’m going to become naughty, like him!
What are you talking about? School doesn’t make you mean.
Yes. Dad explained everything to me. He told me that if he got sick it would be the fault of…
Of? You must not say the wizard’s name
or he will become even stronger. I don’t want to learn, because then
I’ll do the wrong magic with books. What did they put into your head?!
You believe in magic, right? Wait, I’ll show you something.
You see, I know how to do magic too. Except it’s not really magic because
everything has an explanation in nature, even the strangest things. So, magic,
witchcraft, all that… well, it doesn’t exist. Even light a fire from a distance?
No. And cure a little calf that had died?
Well, your little calf wasn’t really dead.
And hurt someone? Oh no, that’s not magic, no. You know,
sometimes we hurt people just because… because we’re very unhappy.
I don’t want to be unhappy. With Dad, I wasn’t unhappy. Never.
Oh I know that! You know what? We are going to see a little boy
called Julien who is not very lucky because he is often sick.
I know. Julien is my friend. Oh yes ?!
Oh la la! Well then! Well, as usual, the doctor comes by,
gives me an injection and says it will be fine. It gets better for a few hours and then it starts again.
He would have to live with us permanently. I don’t think you’re going to
see your boyfriend at school anytime soon… Have you considered
sending him to treatment? We’ve already done it. And when he comes back here, it starts
all over again. Only Roland can do something for him. So now! … Do
you have any news? Yes, yes, yes. It is, it is stationary.
He has taken on too much of the evil that is lurking around here! What do you mean?
You know well…! He removes the spells… Wait there! You don’t really think
that Julien’s asthma is caused by a spell. Well, there are plenty of people who have asthma and it
has nothing to do with witchcraft, okay? And the cow he had cured… It
suddenly died this morning, as if by chance, at a time when Roland was weakened.
Monique, it’s unfortunate, but it’s just a bad patch, that’s all, it’s a coincidence.
Well Eric! Stop that, will you?! You think he’s not breathing badly enough as it is?
Okay, leave it. That’s how his father does it. Mom, it doesn’t hurt anymore. Come on !
I want to stay with you. So how was this first day of school? Savage !
Jean-Baptiste, uh, I need to talk to you… Listen, I have Roland’s animals to
look after. But, I’ll come pick you up after? See you later !
THANKS. Roland thinks he’s a healer, so it
goes to Eric’s head. He believes it too. I’m fine except that Julien
was breathing normally afterward. You know, you told me about that ancestor
… who spoke to animals… Augustus? This is a hoax!
It’s funny, I think Eric has exactly the same look…
What if we went to the cinema. It would change your mind!
Eh? Is your father a wizard? Don’t go near him!
Keep busy! Take him to the low wall!
Hey, it seems that wizards do n’t feel pain! we’ll see…
But stop! what are you doing? You, the bastard, you don’t get involved.
But what are you doing? Kevin! Stop!
Come on, you go back to class and in silence. How are you ? Is there any harm?
Get out of here! That’s right, Eric. If you continue like
this you will soon catch up with the others. When are we going to see Dad?
Sylvia told me that at school the others wanted to hurt you?
Don’t let them do that to you, my little one! You have to defend yourself! This is
how you will gain respect. Okay, it’s time, you can go. Do
n’t forget to learn your recitation for tomorrow.
Bye. Bye.
Bye. Eric, wait a minute please!
This isn’t going well, is it? What’s going on? Is it because of others?
Are you not well at your grandmother’s? But talk to me…
I want to see my dad. All right.
Eric will come home later. Ah good ! For what ?
Sylvia takes him… Where?
She makes him do some catching up. I think she’s overdoing it a bit.  He
shouldn’t get attached to her… Hello.
Good morning. We come to see Roland Tufféry. Tufféry?
Hmm, hmm. Yes indeed, he is
in a psychiatric ward. You can’t just go there like that. You
must ask the doctor for permission. THANKS.
The tests showed nothing. It could be a psychosomatic case.
That’s why we put it here. Can we see it?
No… He’s in a solitary room. Eric is his son, and he thinks his father is a
victim of witchcraft, so… I would like you to explain to him that it doesn’t exist.
That is to say… I can’t say that… Why?
Witchcraft is not talked about, but it is still persistent and wreaks
serious psychological havoc. Just wake up one morning and think someone
wants to harm you, and soon you’ll be in trouble. The bewitched create their own misfortune,
but they pretend that a spell has been cast on them. Bye.
Goodbye boys. Goodbye mistress. See you
tomorrow. Goodbye.
Goodbye Kevin! Goodbye, see you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow Don’t worry. I’m sure
your dad will get better. So the Mongolian? Where are we going like this?
Let me pass. Take him! .
It’s good here!  Phew ! This jerk is heavy!
We’re going to test your powers! Leave me alone!
Go away, Chestnut! Go away! If you don’t want your pet to die,
stop me from wringing its neck. Come on ! Use one of your
powers. Turn me into a pig. I count to three!
One… Stop! Let go of me!
Two ! Stop! Stop!
Three ! Why did you leave?
Why didn’t you stay with Dad and me? You don’t love me either?
They are bad guys. They deserve to be punished.
If you want, you can take revenge. You just have to learn…
I’ll show you something. Something that belonged to your
great-great-great-grandfather Auguste… Where are you going?
At her place, that’s it! I told you
not to get attached! She’s going to get embarrassing soon. You better
start distancing yourself. Come on.
I thought you were mad at me. What ?
I don’t know… From taking too much care of Eric… from taking him to the hospital… from… Since
your brother was hospitalized you haven’t been the same. I’m worried, that’s normal, right? Are
you leaving already? With Roland’s beasts, I have
a lot of work, you know. And what am I? I’m
less than a beast, am I? Once we get out of this, we’ll
have more time. I promise you. There we have a Vera Spruce.
You see? Here, look a little further there.
That’s a birch tree! Well, that’s easy!
What is the name of this white flower?  Marguerite! Daisy. Yes. And you know what that’s called? Thistle.
Very good thistle. Hey Kevin, come on, I have something to
show you. This will really interest you. That’s it! Another idiot’s trick!
No, it’s a secret. OK!
Stay there, you others. Apparently it’s a secret!!!
Well, that’s okay, we’re pretty far away now. So you give birth.
It’s there. There’s a box in the water. There are lots of parts inside.
Well then, go get your box yourself! I’m afraid of water, I don’t know how to swim!
Poor apple! Oh by the way! Are you kidding me?!
No ! I swear! Your thing is bullshit.  There
is nothing. You’re going to pay me for this… Kevin? Eric? Oooooooh.
You’re both going to stop. Kevin! Kevin!
How are you ? Yes ? How are you ? What happened?
I don’t know. I don’t know! It’s Eric, he wanted to show her a secret.
But what did you do? Did you want him to drown or what?!
But answer me! What’s gotten into you?! It’s me, madam! I wanted to avenge Eric,
because Kevin hurt him! What’s all this about?!
Good. Come on, let’s go home! It’s none of your business!
Come on, both of you! I preferred to bring it back myself.
What’s going on? You want to leave us.
I would like to speak to your grandmother. I don’t know what’s going on, but as soon as
my back is turned, he does stupid things. What do you want, others
mistreat him. He has to defend himself!… Since you don’t even know how to watch them.
It’s not for you to judge my work. What I see is that he is changing. He
becomes secretive, he becomes dissembling… What does that mean?
Nothing. I wonder. Well, stop wondering.
And leave him alone. Good. Is John the Baptist here?
No ! Could you please ask him
to call me? Eric! Eric!
But what are you doing?! And you, what are you doing here?!
What’s all this about?! It’s nothing, it’s old stuff…
My mother keeps it as a souvenir. That’s not true, he’s
making it. But what’s going on?
Are you all crazy or what?! You got me good. You coaxed me into
trusting you, that’s it! You used me to help you take Eric away
from his father… to make potions, spells and whatever other nonsense!
You think you are superior with your science and your reason! But you can’t even
protect a kid from the cruelty of others! Like mother, like son, eh! You’re
not better than each other! Come on Eric! We’re leaving. You
won’t stay here another minute. No! I want to stay!
Come on Eric! We’re leaving now. I want to stay here!
All right. All right. I think the child should be taken away
from his uncle and grandmother. Tell us again exactly what you saw. But, I already told you, I saw Eric
making some kind of… little dolls. With what?
With modeling clay I think. I don’t see what’s so strange about a
child playing with play dough. This is the play you had to see. It was
full of witchcraft objects… there were upside down crosses, books of black magic…
You know books and objects, they don’t mean anything. Many
people around here have them, they got them from their ancestors, so they don’t dare throw them away.
Admit that strange things have happened at Croix du Fau lately!
You know that well, don’t you! You know, François?
The deaths of teachers… these are not accidents!
We have the doctor’s reports. These are completely natural discomforts.
And you believe it? And you, Miss Lebert,
what do you believe in? Witches with broomsticks? To the spell-casting elves?…
Ah. Do you think I’m crazy?! Is that it?! Now she’s going to do everything
to take the little one away from us.  There is only one solution, we must get
rid of her immediately! No. I’ll go see her, I’ll convince her.
My poor Jean-Ba! You think she ‘ll listen to you now!
Deep down, you’ve always been naive. I didn’t get along with your brother,
but at least he was a real Tufféry. Well, you know what’s left to do.
Hmm. You’re here, my little one! Come on!
I’m coming to see Sylvia. What’s up with your Sylvia
? ! She forgot your Sylvia. That’s not true!
You’ll get out of here when you’ve calmed down. No !
Listen to me Sylvia, you have to trust me.
Come with me, we have to go see Roland.
I never want anything to do with you again, ever!
Sylvia, it’s a matter of life and death. It’s no use. They’ll
never let us see it. That’s what we’ll see!
Attention ! Jean-Ba! Jean-Ba? I assure you there was a tractor! I do
n’t understand. He wasn’t on the road. He came from… I don’t know… Anyway,
when we passed by, the tractor came to him. Miss, you see there
is no way out for him. Well yes, I see clearly. I don’t understand, but I’ll tell you
exactly how it happened. Well, it doesn’t matter, come on up. We’ll see about
that later, don’t worry. Your x-rays are normal. You
have nothing, you can go out. And my friend?
Well, he’s still under observation. He will stay there for a few days. Do
you have someone to pick you up? No ! Shall
I call you a taxi? Please say
. Can I visit a psychiatrist?
Ah, at this time, visits are prohibited. We will have to come back tomorrow.
Yeah. This mistletoe has a magical property,
it opens all locks.  Do you open all the locks? It’s weird, there’s no wind!  We have to close everything. You mustn’t let him in.
“ When he approached the banks of the river,
the water was transformed into a magic elixir that cured all diseases…. And, moreover,
like many animals of ancient times, he spoke the language of men…”
Eric! Open me up. It’s me, it’s your father! Dad ?
Wait, are you sure? Come on son, open the door!
It is Evil that comes to look for me. Dad ! Dad ! Dad !
Roland, you have to help me.  You have to believe me, I’m with you.
Listen to me, if I untie you will you believe me? It’s over now.  Hello !
Yes he is here. What? You’re waiting for me there, right?
What happened? The dairy cooperative driver
found her like that at six o’clock. Poor woman. There’s nothing left to do.
Given the condition, his sons were not informed. Let’s go guys!
We don’t give up. Come on, let’s continue. Come on! Don’t just stand there! Miss Lebert! But who warned you? Warned of what?
Well… about Mr. Tufféry… Come in. Dad !
Eric!  Are you going home?
Look… I’m healed! I’m sorry but I have
bad news… It’s your mother… We already know!
You already know?… It’s not possible since no one warned you…
I don’t want to know anything, I don’t want to know and I never want to hear
about anything again! Sylvia! Wait for me!
Leave me. I’m leaving! Eric has found his father, I have
nothing more to do here. And me? You don’t care about me?!
I can’t take any more of these stories, you understand… I don’t know where I am anymore! I do
n’t know what to believe or not believe… Sylvia, it’s over now. You’ll
never hear about this again. I promise you. I love you Sylvia. I wish
you were my wife! To make lots of little wizards, is that it?!
You’re going to let yourself be fooled by coincidences. How did you find out about your mother?
Well, I called home. I came across the Gendarmes…
And all I found in the attic was what?
It’s been there for generations. It’s been years since it was of any use. As soon as we get home,
we throw everything in the trash. Trust me! Leave me! I need to be alone!
Well, there you go! This is our last day… On Monday you will have a new master… Where are you going, Madam?
I don’t know yet… So what do you prefer? Shall we do
some math or shall I read you the rest of the story? The tale!
Why are you leaving? I’ll come back to see you, I promise.
I thought you were going to marry Uncle Ba. You don’t love him anymore?
No. I believed it for a moment, and then I was wrong.
I don’t want you to go away… My work here is finished, eh! I
have to go. And my dad, do you like him?
Yes, but that’s not why I’m going to marry him.
Oh, I’m going to miss you terribly. Sylvia and Roland.
Earth upon earth there will be. Roland will love Sylvia. Sylvia will love Roland. Oak, Oak,
always grow, let nothing hinder their love. What are you doing ?
Nothing ! I understand that you are
sad that she is leaving. It’s not necessarily a good thing to
push people to love each other, you know.
