Plot

Nat Jester says: "This is a lovely film, harking back to older times through its use of the silent film format. This makes the acting abilities of the two leads, Jean du Jardin and Bérénice Bejo, all the more important and they really do a wonderful job. The blossoming romance between the leads can also be seen as a metaphor for the love of cinema, and the way in which it has changed over time. 5/5"
