I walked by it on the shelf many times, turned off by that awful title. When it was retitled "The Boy from Lebanon," I gave it a shot. Picture This! distributes it in the US and Canada, but it's not on their list of the films they can distribute to Europe. I tried looking up sites for Canal+Productions and Flache Films, but couldn't find any... IMDb.com has several other European companies listed in the country credits... maybe one of them will be the key to finding it in Europe. I checked Netflix, but wasn't sure if it can be downloaded to Belgium... you might want to check that a little more deeply. Sorry it's so hard to come by.

You had me confused for bit. I never heard of the title "The Boy from Lebanon" but I did recognize the picture. Some googling cleared the confussion. It's called "Killer Kid" in Europe. Did you say a while ago that Europe is truely different? No it isn't. This film was well received in Cannes and the few ratings I've seen are all 4 stars out of 5, but it was ignored by the main movie theaters. It was shown as "arthouse" in small theaters in 1994/1995. I'm actually very interested in seeing it, but I can't find a Dutch (or French) online store selling it!! The only sites openly discussing it are a couple of Belgian secondary school (high school) sites. Some denial going on here, me thinks. :-( This is interesting. You had me confused for bit.
