One Fine Morning

Celebrated writer-director Mia Hansen-Løve makes a wise and wistful return with One Fine Morning, a profoundly moving portrayal of love, loss and contemporary womanhood, featuring a career-best performance from Léa Seydoux. Set in Paris, Seydoux plays Sandra - a young, widowed mother who juggles her job as a translator with caring both for her young daughter and elderly father. Sandra’s life is further complicated when she embarks on a passionate affair with Clement, an old friend in an unhappy marriage. Also starring Melvil Poupaud and Pascal Greggory, this Cannes Film Festival award-winner is a gently poignant romantic drama shot through with the director’s characteristically charming touch. (MUBI)
