Dans le Terrier du Lapin Blanc, a Mexican film due on Netflix on May 1, 2024, plunges viewers into the fascinating, offbeat world of Tochtli, a boy with tastes that are eclectic to say the least. Directed by Manolo Caro and written by Nicolás Giacobone, the film blends comedy and drama through the story of a child and his father, who will do anything to satisfy his son's extravagant desires. With a cast that includes Daniel Giménez Cacho and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, the film promises a profound exploration of the themes of innocence, power and isolation.
The film follows the adventures of Tochtli, played by Miguel Valverde Uribe, a young boy obsessed with hats, samurai, and above all, the idea of adding a dwarf African hippopotamus to his private zoo. His father, Yolcaut(Manuel Garcia-Rulfo), a powerful and mysterious man, uses his considerable resources to fulfill his son's whims, often in defiance of legality and morality. As the story unfolds, the viewer is swept into a world where childish desires meet brutal adult realities, offering a poignant commentary on the excesses of wealth and lost innocence.
Aimed at an adult audience, Dans le Terrier du Lapin Blanc stands out for its original narrative and bold approach to sensitive subjects such as corruption andexploitation. The film could resonate particularly with those who appreciate psychological dramas andsocial satires, such as Parasite or American Psycho. A child's unique perspective on such adult themes enriches the narrative, offering both humor and tragedy.
A gentle blend of comedy and drama, Dans le Terrier du LapinBlancc is a bold and provocative work that promises to captivate Netflix subscribers from the moment of its release. Through the eyes of Tochtli, the film explores the extremes of society, while offering an acerbic critique of opulence and indifference.
