He cons the whole region, hires dozens of workers and cynically enjoys the profits of his scam until he meets the lady mayor of a small village that the road will go through. She intrigues and unsettles him, before revealing to him a world he never knew: feelings. How far will he go now to save his victims and save himself from his own lies?
In the Beginning is a 2009 French drama about a charismatic con artist who poses as a construction boss to swindle an entire region. When he encounters a principled village mayor, his cynical worldview begins to unravel, forcing him to confront his own humanity and the consequences of his deception.
