Beau Temps Mais Orageux En Fin de Journée, Beau Temps Mais Orageux En Fin de Journée

Gérard Frot-Coutaz

France, 1986, Color, 85’

“As a meteorological (and even life) manual, this film has the direct simplicity of a popular song and gets to you by surprise and right in the heart, just like a catchy chorus rises on the subterranean chords of a familiar tune. Set in a fake closed environment actually open to distressed winds, raising a love and sadness monument on the feeling of erosion and annoyance, its irritating comical powers, the film is captivating through this musical power.” (Florence Maillard)
