Deze beklemmende karakterstudie, die zich afwisselend in Londen en Parijs afspeelt, is een spookverhaal dat het reële en het bovennatuurlijke met elkaar verbindt. De film, waarin Kristen Stewart verdriet tastbaar maakt, bezorgde Assayas de prijs voor beste regisseur in Cannes.
In this lithe romantic triangle, Philippe Garrel shows us he only needs the barest means—plus 35mm B&W film—to tell a story. Co-scripted with his regular collaborator Jean-Claude Carrière, the film oozes desire and intensity, as two women (one played by his daughter Esther) find out what love means.
From French king of cool Bertrand Bonello, this endlessly mysterious chiller subverts horror tropes in unexpected ways, fearlessly unleashing suppressed demons. Boasting a sharp political edge, lavish visuals, and an ace synth score by Bonello himself, Zombi Child is a sublime slice of sinuous pulp.
