- S: Very painfully sensible. One of the few films that shows grief through a realistic experience.
- C: So many beautiful shots. The camera is often placed so intimately that it gives the film a realness that many films don't have. This makes the classic "cinematic" shots
all the more magnified. Also, great makeup and costuming.
- E: The film is a slow burner, but lulls a bit too much when she goes clubbing with friends the second time. Also, the timing of the ending is odd and it feels a bit forced.
- N: Nuanced story that shows an experience of grief through realism. Most films show grief in grand gestures. This is one of the few that shows how most people experience it
in recurring, ordinary events.
- T: The film received all five possible bonus points: one for a great shot with Cassandre walking towards the camera, one for an incredible shot smoking in a forest,
one for the brilliant conversation between father and daughters with an automatic light, one for a very routine phone call with an unordinary response, and one for a great conversation in
darkness lit by only cigarettes.
Beautiful, slow-burner on grief and loss. The best part of the film are the relationships and conversations the main character has. Each one is so well written and acted
that it gives the film a real sense of humanity.
