Our take

After starring in the films of Christophe Honoré and Olivier Assayas, Joana Preiss directed this visceral debut feature. Documenting an emotional journey with her then-lover Bruno Dumont, this raw, personal film challenges the limits of romantic secrecy and the lines between fiction and documentary.
