Former circus performer Jaco Van Dormael made his feature-film directing bow with the Belgian/French/German coproduction Toto Le H?ros (Toto the Hero). The title character is a fictional supersecret agent, idolized by a young boy named Thomas who aspires to become Toto when he grows up. Thanks to a kaleidoscope of flashbacks and flashforwards, we know that his real fate is far different. The film hopscotches between the Three Ages of Thomas: wide-eyed youngster, mediocrity-mired adult, bitter old man, forever jealous of his wealthy boyhood friend Alfred, fantasizing that he and his chum were switched at birth. A delightful art-house hit from 1991, now all but forgotten. (French with English subtitles)

A stunning tale that combines mystery, fantasy, drama, action, comedy, and a little bit of everything else, Toto The Hero (Toto le Hero) is one of those films that?s kept me coming back again and again, because I get a little more out of it with every viewing. ? Austin Chronicle
