Short description

Nathalie is a philosophy teacher in Paris who finds fulfillment in her profession and her relationships with family and former students. Her stable existence is disrupted when her husband decides to leave her for another person. Facing a sudden and unexpected independence, she must navigate various life changes and find a way to redefine her future.

Written and directed by Mia Hansen-Løve, this drama followed her 2014 film Eden. The movie stars Isabelle Huppert in the lead role, alongside André Marcon, Roman Kolinka, and Edith Scob. Produced by companies from France and Germany, the production operated with a budget of 2 million USD.

The film has received positive attention from professional reviewers, who gave it a rating of 8.2/10 based on 150 reviews. This score is notably higher than the audience rating on TMDB, where it holds a 6.5/10 based on 348 votes.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Director Mia Hansen-Løve was filming a movie about a mother's life and before the start of filming, she asked her to review the script. She read the script and asked for only one change – to change the cat's name from Desdemona, as she was actually called, to Pandora as a sign of respect for the animal's right to its own name.
