Sex on an apartment-house stairway, 14-year-old crack dealers, racial tensions, violence--you'd think this was an American movie. But Karim Dridi's exploration of two brothers' struggle with the underworld is shot in a typically French fashion. There are no car chases or explosions here, just a slow-moving portrait of real life. With its gritty, documentary feel,
Bye-Bye thankfully avoids the pretentious drivel that characterizes many French films.
