Isabelle is a divorced artist in Paris. She lives alone, feels lonely and is constantly disappointed by the men she takes to bed. And being French, Isabelle wants to talk about her disappointment.

The new film by Claire Denis, winner of the SACD Prize in Cannes, is an elegant, eccentric relationship comedy of ideas. “This is grownup film-making, more savoury than sweet, seductive, oblique and carried by a wonderfully smart and emotionally generous performance from Juliette Binoche” - Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian.

Filmography: Bastards (2013), White Material (2009), 35 Shots of Rum (2008), Beau Travail (1999), Nenette and Boni (1999), Chocolat (1998).
