This tale of a year in the lives of a professor and a student takes place at a university in Brittany—between two generations, between the dreams of youth and various adult trajectories. It takes place between what we see and what we fail (or refuse) to see, what we’re willing to give up as we age, and what we cannot do without. It’s very realistic, yet deeply dreamlike—sometimes nightmarish. With impressive assurance in the directing and the storytelling of her second feature, Pascale Breton combines coming-of-age chronicle and fairytale to subtly question the way we manage to live together or do not: as couples, as friends, as community, but also together with our memories, and with our fantasies.
