Benjamin Tholon and his fiancÃ©e HÃ©lÃ¨ne are driving back from what was supposed to have been a relaxing skiing holiday in Switzerland. When their car suddenly breaks down in a snow blizzard, they are saved by an unlikely rescuer who offers them overnight shelter in a remote farm. Christened â€˜The Wilterâ€™, this rural retreat is home to matriarch philosophy teacher Francesca and her charming litigator husband, JÃ©rÃ´me.Before long, the stranded guests Benjamin and HÃ©lÃ¨ne begin arguing over their predicament. Then, when the ever-curious Benjamin begins roaming the house, he makes a chilling and scarcely believable discovery: from beneath the farmâ€™s floorboards, muffled voices cry out to him. Deep underground and in the shadow of history, a deadly scheme is at work, fuelled by obsession, resentment and an insatiable thirst for youth...Winner of the 1997 Renaudot Prize, 'They Stole Our Beauty' is a profound and disturbing meditation on aesthetics, social justice and the politics of self-and-other relations.
