François Zumstein

A mysterious Green Knight rides into a court celebration and challenges the young knights present to strike him with his own axe - on the condition that he, the Green Knight, may return exactly the same blow in a year and a day. Gawain accepts and cuts off his head. But the Green Knight stands up, retrieves his head, and rides away, reminding Gawain of his promise.

In a thriller that’s all about gamesmanship, a man takes his mistress to his country house for the weekend and gets more than he bargained for. Based on Thierry Lamy’s short graphic novel “Le Jeu”.
