La rencontre d'un trio de marginaux, composé d'un soldat "ASC" russe (Mikhail - Edouard Nikitine), d'une prostituée de transsexuel (Stéphanie - Stéphanie Michelini) et d'une prostituée masculine algérienne (Djamel - Yasmine Belmadi), dans le Paris contemporain, et l'amour qui naît entre eux. Leur alliance sera d'autant plus forte qu'elle se déroulera sur fond de clandestinité et de mort...
The meeting of a marginal trio -- Mikhail (Edouard Nikitine), an AWOL Russian soldier; Stéphanie (Stéphanie Michelini), a transsexual prostitute; and Djamel (Yasmine Belmadi), an Algerian hustler -- in contemporary Paris and the powerful love that binds the three of them. Their alliance becomes stronger as it takes place from the depth of a clandestine nature and death...
WILD SIDE is an award-winning dramatic project from France, Belgium and the UK. It is moving and heartbreaking. The lead trio's performances are so natural and (almost) flawless. The direction is great and the cinematography is stunningly beautiful. And... the musical number is the beginning is so arresting that I happen to believe that the idea of that musical ending in Shortbus was derived from it.
