Hannah et Violetta forment un couple hors du commun : mère insaisissable et fillette en quête d'amour maternel, artiste fantasque et modèle malgré elle. Lorsqu'Hannah demande à sa fille si elle veut être son modèle, tout bascule dans la vie de Violetta qui vivait jusque là avec sa tendre grand mère. D'une enfance banale elle devient égérie du milieu branché parisien ... (Sophie Dulac Distribution)

At the beginning, it seemed pretty artsy to me to the point that I was saying to myself that I didn’t know whether I could handle such a wave of artsiness. The mother portrayed by Isabella Huppert pissed me off from the moment the movie started. But later I understood that she was supposed to piss me off because the things she did were pretty crazy and had a strong impact on the rest of the movie. After about 40 minutes, the movie shifts its focus from the artists onto the daughter of that crazy artist, who was portrayed brilliantly by Anamaria Vartolomei. Well and at that point, the gradation started and the movie went all the way, as French movies tend to do. The ending literally swept me off my feet so much that I’m still speechless. Finally, a good old French movie that takes only the best of French history. I tip my hat off to the director Eva Ionesco, for whom this movie was a directorial debut.
