Just saw this feature half an hour ago on the Film Festival in Gent, Belgium, the director and one of the actresses being present (Lea). It was a moving experience, creating an ambiance that reminded me in some way of the melancholic, playful ambiance in Bertolucci's The Dreamers: young people exploring life and each other in a tender, fragile and endlessly creative way, in some kind of idyllic, timeless place. The audience was really moved after the film, and both the director & the actress were cheered and answered the numerous questions with pleasure. I can't wait to see more of this director; I thoroughly enjoyed her creativity, and the stunning improvisations by the actors.
