Director: Andrea Pallaoro. Cast: Charlotte Rampling, André Wilms, Jean-Michel Balthazar, Simon Bisschop, Stéphanie Van Vyve, Luca Avallone. Screenplay: Andrea Pallaoro and Orlando Tirado. Twitter Capsule:
Split. Ended up impressed, albeit coldly. There's a reason ads aren't foregrounding plot. Seems broad, reveals specificity.
Second Capsule:
Rampling's good, though for a long while I felt the film was taking my fascination with her totally for granted. My dream: Joanne Woodward.

Holds to a long, slow arc of revelation that takes some fortitude on the parts of both filmmaker and audience. Still, some standard festival-film tropes.
