French filmmaker Rebecca Zlotowski captures the incipient infatuation of intoxication in a small sprawling box. She struggles on in her thankless position as a bonus mother, but her longing for a child of her own grows at the same rate as the biological clock counts down time like in a bomb in a Bond film.
"There somewhere lies the greatness of French Rebecca Slotowski's small-scale storytelling; in the ability to let different emotional states seep out of the cracks of a well-kept façade", says Fredrik Sahlin.
