Character (1997)
9/10
Very good movie
5 October 2003
His mother ignores him. His father denies him and makes life unbearable for him. Yet, Jacob Katadreuffe courageously faces whatever hurdles are placed in his path. The odds are certainly stacked solidly against him. Will he win, or will the abuse eventually take its toll and destroy his life? This is the question that permeates the movie.

Very good story with solid performances, and a great score. Fedja Van Huet is almost hypnotizing in his performance, presenting us with a balanced portrayal of almost childish vulnerability and sheer determination.
