P'tit Quinquin miniseries

"The action seems to rise organically from the locale, and Dumont's grand yet intimate fiction fuses his inner world with the historical moment." 

"'Li'l Quinquin' is a quasi-epic farce that mostly wears a poker face as it elaborates his continuing obsession with the collision of humankind's bestial and spiritual impulses." 

"Once it becomes clear that this is no mere murder mystery, and the bizarre turns into the ludicrous and into the depraved, Dumont’s analysis of life’s toughest questions (...) as told through the simplest of ways becomes tremendously captivating." 

"The odd mix of elements makes for an alternately (...) hilarious and unsettling whole." 

"Dumont seems to suggest that the world of adults (...) is so rotten that it can only be stomached and perhaps even saved by two things: laughter of the tragicomic kind and a child-like innocence that somehow needs to be maintained into adulthood."
