Inspiring! Just shows how little you need to create a great film. Although I firmly believe it would have been better without the voice-over.

I don'#39;t know if it'#39;s because I'#39;m not interested, but the sex scene wasn'#39;t reflected well, they seemed to be wrestling, anyway, I pass it by “il”, so the driver seemed to show the abomination of men, it was generally meaningless, but I don'#39;t regret watching it.

Although it challenges conventional cinema norms by offering an intimate and provocative exploration of sexuality and identity, it is not a film I would recommend. Indeed, through an approach that deliberately departs from traditional narrative conventions, Akerman creates a film that is both bold and contemplative. Firstly, what stands out the most is that due to its low budget, the film was shot using high-ISO film, which accentuates its distinctive grain and contributes to a raw and authentic aesthetic. [spoiler] However, the most notable element is the lesbian sex scene at the end of the film, remarkable for its explicitness and duration, approaching thirty minutes. This scene, which defies conventional norms of representation in cinema, offers an uncompromising exploration of desire and intimacy. The length and frankness of this sequence allow for a complete immersion into the emotional experience of the characters, revealing the complexities of their relationships and emotions in a way that few films dare to show. Nevertheless, realism is relegated to the background due to an improvised choreography aiming to distance itself from pornography, which makes it challenging to achieve emotional authenticity and subjective experience over documentary precision in terms of time.[/spoiler] Finally, the interview-documentary character is clearly influenced by Jean-Luc Godard's style, which, while adding an interesting dimension, also results in an approach that is somewhat derivative and less innovative.
