When I'm with You

About This Movie

So, 'When I'm with You' offers this really unique take on waiting and identity through animation. Margot's been stuck in her house for four decades, and it’s not just a physical wait but a deeper kind of yearning for connection. The visuals are striking, with a fluid style that mirrors Marie's own slippery journey of self-discovery. The pacing is deliberate, almost hypnotic, which kind of pulls you into Margot's isolated world. There's a palpable tension as the characters navigate their inner lives—it's all about how we shape ourselves for others. The performances are subtle yet rich, allowing the weight of their existences to resonate. It's not your typical animated fare; it really digs into the emotional landscape of waiting and becoming.
