Tarnation

This film runs for the Caméra d'or Synopsis Jonathan’s mother, Renée, went clinically insane as a result of the shock therapy her parents made her endure in her youth. Beautiful and artistic, Renée was “exceptional.” The electroshock treatments had tragic consequences on her life: rape, drug addiction, but also the creation of an indestructible bond with her son, Jonathan. The film starts in 2003, when Jonathan learns that Renée has taken an overdose of lithium. He leaves New York, where he lives with his friend David, and returns to the chaos of his Texas home. This return to his roots unleashes a kaleidoscopic vision of his nightmares and the brief idylls of his difficult childhood.
