Unfolding over the course of a late summer's day in the stunningly beautiful Portuguese town of Sintra, the wonderful new film from acclaimed director Ira Sachs follows a family that has gathered for a holiday organised by family matriarch Frankie (Isabelle Huppert). In this fairy tale setting, husbands and wives, parents and children, friends and lovers - all stirred by their romantic impulses - discover both the cracks between them but also unexpected depths of feeling. With an outstanding cast that includes Brendan Gleeson, Greg Kinnear and Marisa Tomei, Frankie delivers a funny and utterly engaging cinematic treat. (Picturehouse Entertainment)
