ALLELUIA

Graduate of the Conservatory of Dramatic Art of Liège and INSAS in Brussels, Fabrice du Welz quickly makes his entrance into television. His first short When You’re in Love, It's Wonderful (1999), already presages the strong and singular identity of the director. In 2004, Fabrice du Welz stands out as a figurehead of genre cinema with Calvaire: Presented at the International Critics Week at Cannes, the horror film wins in 2005 the Jury Prize as well as that of the International Critics at Gérardmer. In 2013, he works once again with actor Laurent Lucas for the second episode of an Ardennes trilogy of which Calvaire is the first opus: A free adaptation of an item in the American news featuring the “Honeymoon Killers,” Alleluia plunges us into the meanders of destructive passion.
