This is another Palme d'Or winner that I’ve meant to watch for bit, but I knew nothing about it going into it. The plot of this one is so simple and it goes by so fast, but in a good way. It’s a slice of life that I haven’t seen portrayed in this way before. It’s about a guy who sells his child he can’t connect with for money, which devastates the wife he loves, so he forgoes the consequences and gets the kid back, not caring about anyone he’s going to piss off in the process. The ending is really poetic for the film and for the characters.
