After Love (2016, Fr/Bel) cert. 12A – subtitled

Director: Joachim Lafosse           

Stars: Bérénice Bejo, Cédric Kahn, Marthe Keller

Boris and Marie are devoted parents of young twin daughters, living neither together nor apart as they try to negotiate a grown-up separation.

At times they share their apartment and family duties peacefully; at other times, the differences which have driven them apart, and the financial stalemate which binds them together (the original title is “L’Economie du Couple”, I’ll let you do your own translation) seem insurmountable.

Lafosse’s sensitive chamber drama paints a finely observed portrait of two flawed, decent people, with a luminous, utterly convincing performance from Bejo (The Artist) as Marie.
