Giorgino is a 1994 French thriller film directed by Laurent Boutonnat.
Plot
It's October 1918 and the war-stricken Giorgio Volli (Jeff Dahlgren) returns to the orphanage where he had been working as a care-taker before the war. Upon arrival, he discovers the wife of the orphanage owner has committed suicide. His attempts to save her are fruitless. Soon after, it's revealed that the house is abandoned, and the children died under unclear circumstances. The only survivor is a girl, Catherine (Mylène Farmer). Giorgio follows the mystery to a small village bordered with a treacherous marsh where the locals are terrified of wolves. Through speaking with the secretive locals and the mystifying Catherine, Giorgino finds out that the orphanage owner, Doctor Degrâce, was involved in psychiatric experiments with children, which may have caused the abandonment of the orphanage. Doctor Degrâce's autistic daughter, Catherine, is the only witness to what unfolded in the orphanage, and Giorgino develops a tumultuous relationship with her as he begins to uncover the mystery of the small village.

Reception
The film, produced by Laurent Boutonnat and in which Mylène Farmer starred, was both a critical and financial failure. Released on 5 October 1994, it was seen by barely 25,000 spectators in the first week and was the first setback in Farmer's career. As a result, the musical duo separated on bad terms before eventually getting back together for Farmer's 1995 album Anamorphosée.
