Suzanne

by Katell Quillévéré Window: Nouvelle Vague au féminin

Two sisters Suzanne and Maria are as thick as thieves. After their mother died, their somewhat inept but loving father is doing the best he can to keep the household in order. The family remains tightly knit, even when 17-year-old Suzanne gets pregnant. However, the harmony soon turns to discord when Suzanne falls for small-time criminal Julien – and it’s not long before he leads her astray. Sara Forestier and Adèle Haenel are captivating in Katell Quillévéré’s second feature.
