What happens
Family Game (French: Arsenault et fils) is a Canadian crime drama film, directed by Rafaël Ouellet and released in 2022. Set in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region of Quebec, the film centres on the Arsenaults, a family who have been involved in illegal poaching and reselling of wild meat out of the back of the family-owned garage. Older son Adam (Guillaume Cyr) wants to get out of the criminal enterprise and run the business honestly, but finds his plans complicated by the return of his more criminally inclined younger brother Anthony (Pierre-Paul Alain) and the arrival in the town of Émilie (Karine Vanasse), a radio host. The film's cast also includes Luc Picard as Adam and Anthony's father André, Julien Poulin as their grandfather Armand, and Micheline Lanctôt as their grandmother Irène. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
