Our take
Extracting potent satire from a speculative scenario involving a mind-reading teenager, this second feature from writer-director Frédéric Hambalek earned a Special Mention at Berlin. Divining trouble beneath the sleek surfaces of bourgeois living, What Marielle Knows winks with supernatural insight.
