How sad is this?
Best movie of this year hands down!
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Its amazing to see that a short film can pack such a powerful punch. The interaction between the two actors is really what takes this simple story to the next level. The young girl (Milya Corbeil-Gaubreau) ) is a natural talent, visibly at ease in front of the cameras. The dad (Alain Houle) portrays a complex set of emotions, from light and happy at first to torn and sad as the story unfolds. Its surprising to see such a convincing display: he really conveys how his mood is transformed within a short span of time. Very moving.I'm not usually a fan of shorts but this one made a believer out of me.Won best international fiction at Sundance. Both the director (Genevieve Dulude-Decelles) and the actors show immense talent.
The story of this French-Canadian short film (part of the 2014 Sundance Shorts program) could not be simpler: a young girl is spending time with her Dad and positively bubbling over the prospect of enjoying a special evening with him, when an alternative unexpectedly presents itself. What was a simple situation a moment ago is now a complex one, and the mood changes instantly. The young actress playing Fanny, Milya Corbeil-Gaubreau, makes her debut here and is a gifted natural. The directorial style might strike some viewers as slow, but with actors this good, you want to linger. The director, Genevieve Dulude-Decelles, is a talent to watch.
