Taylor Brogan“I remember sitting in the theater, weeping and breathless as the final scene played out. I then proceeded to watch it over and over again in lockdown, to the point that I could close my eyes and still know exactly what was happening, despite not speaking French. It's just the greatest movie ever made. Also - no one has ever been hotter than Adele Haenel in this.”

Iman Mohamed“Visually stunning, emotionally precise, it’s about looking, being looked at, and what we carry when something beautiful ends. Devastating and exactly the kind of slow-burn you want when the days are getting longer, and you actually have time to sink into it.”
