Our take
Where most people might be satisfied with telling a story of a simple love triangle, Emmanuel Mouret’s time-hopping mosaic of splintering relationships becomes an almost unclassifiable geometric shape of love lost and found. Dating might be exhausting, but this sharp exploration of romance delights.
