After Love

From the director of Our Children, the stark story of Boris (Cédric Kahn) and Marie (Bérénice Bejo), a couple who have decided to separate after 15 years together. They have two girls that they adore. However, cash-strapped Boris is still living in the family home. When all is said and done, neither of the two is willing to give up. Now their apartment is a war zone and their situation a nightmare.

Joachim Lafosse captures with great magnanimity the painfully intimate, harrowing, fascinating drama about the emotional and financial complexities of a separation and a long love story's end.

“Unapologetically aimed at the arthouse crowd, this is superior filmmaking. Superbly acted and well written, it stakes its claim in the pantheon of love-gone-wrong watches.”— Andrew Lowry, Empire
