Our take

A journey from darkness into light that sees hedonistic pleasures tainted by disillusionment and danger, Atomic Age is the sophomore feature from Héléna Klotz. With an acute observational eye trained on the ephemeral mysteries of desire, Klotz find echoes of Bresson in her nocturnal wanderings.
