Zahia Dehar was caught up in a major scandal in 2009, when she was solicited as an underage prostitute by members of the French national football team. In this Cannes-set coming-of-ager she plays Sofia, a sexually liberated 20-something whose hedonistic lifestyle draws her cousin, Naïma , into a world of fabulous wealth and easy virtue. It’s an ingenious bit of casting that gives director Rebecca Zlotowski free rein to explore ideas about sex, commerce and feminism in contemporary France.
Favouring mood and texture over melodrama – the discordant score from Mica Levi collaborator Oliver Coates tells you where his head is at – Wright gets terrific performances from his leads, Sean Harris and Joel Edgerton, in this unsettling thriller.This bizarrely poetic work from French animator Jérémy Clapin offers a coming-of-age story with a twist – the ‘I’ of the title refers to a severed hand risking life and, er, just life trying to make its way back to its owner.
Great list!!!! 🙇🏻
