Seaside La Ciotat, its cicadas droning, is a far cry from the battlefields of Ukraine. A distance that vexes 16-year-old Enzo, who is drowning in ennui. Drawn to danger, cavalier about consequences, he is convinced a dashing Ukrainian bricklayer is his ticket to a more audacious future. Enzo (Eloy Pohu) makes for an irksome masonry apprentice: he slacks off, scoffing at superiors. He seems engineered for his privileged life at his parents’ hillside villa, cooling off in the pool under an unrelenting sun. But, he bucks his parents’ high aspirations and boss’ low expectations, determined to be part of something that lasts. Equally determined to insinuate himself into the trajectory of his 20-something colleague, Vlad (Maksym Slivinskyi). While Enzo must debate which vacation to take, Vlad is torn epically between a newfound Frenchness and wartorn Ukraine. Vlad becoming a romantic and narrative ideal Enzo will do anything to attain. Dying in the midst of Enzo’s creation, auteur Laurent Cantet passed the baton to longtime collaborator Robin Campillo (120 BPM), who encapsulates the fascinating ambiguities of sexuality, class anxiety, and valour. Situating them amongst the half-built shelters and ineffable ruins of our time.

Get ready for Amantes, a sexy trope-bender that defies love triangles, calling for a new shape to lesbian relationships and in a softer tone of feminist discourse. Set in romantic Paris, this series of intertwined stories from an all-female cast is sure to open minds just as much as hearts. Ruby, podcaster for Everybody Wants to Say I Love You is driven by psychological feminist theories as she explores the complexities of relationships between women—although her devotion to work leaves her wife Gabrielle wanting. Then there’s Nour, a fun and passionate singer who cannot resist the level-headed, down-to-earth Camille; and let’s not forget the gorgeous throuple: Rebecca, Laura, and Ophelie whose polyamory puts a delightful spin on relationship milestones like meeting the parents and having children. More women surround these relationships—friends, exes, and interested parties—all of whom are navigating the “unconscious contract of commitment.” More than your typical rom-com, Amantes delivers a refreshingly light-hearted and vulnerable narrative that bears resemblance to The L Word when she meets Sex and the City and invites Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona to tag along for an hour and a half of steamy sapphic fun.

The city is Paris, the year is 2014, and same-sex marriage has recently been legalized in France. Céline and Nadia—both in their thirties—decide to get married and start a family (via insemination) but as pioneers of lesbian parenting, they quickly discover how far from equality they actually remain. A remarkable debut from Alice Douard, Des preuves d’amour (Love Letters) explores the trials of lesbian parenting, with plenty of laugh-out-loud moments to help ease the tension of unrelenting obstacles. While most would agree that one can never truly prepare for parenthood, Douard’s film shows the barriers that a lesbian couple must overcome—to name a few, there’s mandatory marital status, adoption papers for the non-gestational parent, and fifteen letters of attestation from friends and family (PS–they can’t all be lesbians!). Though these demands compound an already overwhelming milestone, Céline (Ella Rumpf) and Nadia (Monia Chokri, Les amours imaginaires) persist, enduring character judgments and microaggressions as they navigate through the endless bureaucratic hoops that no heterosexual couple would have to surpass. But the most significant challenge for Céline will be to reconnect her estranged mother Marguerite—a famous concert pianist who’s currently in Paris for a tour—from whom Céline needs a letter.
