LOVE AT FIRST FIGHT
Les combattants
Synopsis
Between his friends and the family business, Arnaud’s summer looks set to be a peaceful one. Peaceful until he runs into Madeleine, as beautiful as she is brusque, a concrete block of tensed muscles and doomsday prophecies. He expects nothing; she prepares for the worst.

Our take
A young Adèle Haenel (Portrait of a Lady on Fire) stars in this feel-good romantic comedy, the charming debut feature from French auteur Thomas Cailley. Rich in screwball humor and American indie influences, Love at First Fight is a sweet-natured, engaging summer tale about a mismatched couple.
