Anchored by an achingly sensitive performance from Lola Créton, Mia Hansen-Løve’s discerning study of personal revolution depicts adolescence with peerless grace. Illuminating a youthful romance with palpably lived wisdom, this sun-drenched film plumbs the profound immensity of formative first love.

The sophomore feature from Mia Hansen-Løve, this moving drama is sensitively attuned to the intimate dynamics of family life. Inspired by the true-life story of producer Hubert Balsan—famed for his work with Claire Denis—The Father of My Children blossoms with quiet observations on love and loss.
