Through this tough, memorable film, Ms. Varda reaches for our humanity with a force that very few movies can muster.

This smooth, gliding action gives the camera the feel of a floating apparition observing a moment while in transit, attempting to draw in as much detail as possible but never stopping to stare.

An unmissable film from this great director.

A film of purest empathy driven by Sandrine Bonnaire's stunning performance as a drive-less drifter. Bonnaire offers no ego, no sentiment and no holds barred.
