by Claire Denis
Recently divorced, the sensitive fiftysomething Isabelle is on the lookout for her next big love. Or at least something that comes close. If things do not work out with the dapper blue-shirted banker, then why not try with the attractive young actor – who, however, has no idea what he wants for himself, let alone what Isabelle wants. The sex with her ex-husband is not as great as it used to be and relations with her artsy friend are nothing more than a fling. Isabelle is left stumbling eloquently yet indecisively from one affair to the next… Playfully, ZFF honorary award recipient Claire Denis flirts with an intimate romantic comedy. UN BEAU SOLEIL INTÉRIEUR portrays a strong yet equally fragile woman whose luck just like sand seems to forever fall between her fingers.
