Country: France
Plot: A chronicle of the romance between Camille and Sullivan, which begins during their adolescence.
Quick comment: This movie
is about the difficulty of a young girl to let go her first boyfriend. It took several
years of her life. In some
occasions it brought to my head Eric Rohmer’s tales, without the intense
dialogs that distinguished them. A very natural acting was fundamental to induce
the typical French realism and honesty. But I also sensed that the story, in its slow pace, could
have had some more spirit in considerable moments. It is not exceptional nor fundamental, but deserves a good look.
Relevant awards: Special mention (Locarno).
