Our take
Exploring the emotional space of a relationship with an older man, Suzanne Lindon’s breezy debut feature is imbued with the swooning, heartbreak, and dizzying possibility of first love. Also starring in the film, the writer-director portrays growing up as an unpredictable journey of aching beauty.
