About This Movie

Ariane's attachment to her neighborhood is palpable; you feel every corner of her familiar world. The pacing is leisurely, allowing us to soak in her interactions with the local residents and shop owners, which are the film's heart. It’s not just about her impending displacement, but also about the essence of belonging and love, particularly through her long-distance relationship with her Parisian girlfriend. The performances are understated yet deeply resonant, drawing you into Ariane's emotional turmoil. It’s more about the small moments and the depth of connection than any grand narrative. You can almost taste the bittersweet charm of Montreal in every scene.
