The Palace is an intriguing exploration of youthful naivety and the sometimes harsh realities of adulthood.

The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to settle into her discomfort, while the atmosphere is thick with the energy of nightlife. There's a palpable tension between the carefree vibe of the club and Machteld's internal struggle. The performances, especially from the actors playing her friends, add a layer of complexity—sometimes sympathetic, sometimes not.
