7/10

"Jean Devaivre ,who had sunk into oblivion ,gained fame again as one of the heroes of Bertrand Tavernier's "Laissez passer" which was based on his memoirs(Jacques Gamblin played his part in this 2002 film).His career as a director was short-lived and only two of his movies are worth watching :"La Dame De Onze Heures" and this film "La Ferme Des Sept Péchés" (The farm of the seven sins).Both are offbeat thrillers ,"La Ferme" is the best of the two .
