Our take
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.
