An adaptation of a novel by Jérôme Ferrari, Thierry de Peretti takes a non-didactic look at the history of Corsica at the end of the 20th century: as embodied by Antonia, a young press photographer in love with an independence fighter. The film does not sidestep the impasses of nationalism, and nor does it deny the Corsican cause: rather, it delicately and quietly captures its singularity. It is, though, above all, a formidable portrait of a woman forging her own path. (Cannes Film Festival)
