A pair of millennial lovers, Ramón (Nahuel Pérez Biscayart, from BPM [Beats Per Minute]) and Céline (Noémie Merlant, Portrait of a Lady on Fire), must suddenly cope with severe post-traumatic stress after they’re caught up in the mass shooting at the Bataclan Theatre in Paris.
The first feature-length work in French (mostly) instead of Spanish for Catalan director Isaki Lacuesta (Between Two Waters), this study of love mangled by trauma and based on a novel by Ramón González, benefits from innovative direction and eloquent performances.
"Powerful dramatisation of a couple’s survival of the Bataclan terrorist attack in Paris."
