☞ DETAILS:

Passion is never out of fashion in French cinema, especially when a certain self-destructive component is involved. But France has been more committed than any other nation to giving amour fou a specifically female spin. A Cannes label film, Passion Simple is a compelling, formally adventurous drama highlighting a superb performance by Laetitia Dosch.

☞THE MOVIE:

“Since last September I have done nothing but wait for a man : for him to call me and come to my place… Everything about him was so precious to me, his eyes, his mouth, his penis, his childhood memories, his voice…” – Synopsis

« Finally, Franco-Lebanese director Danielle Arbid has taken a gutsy stab at it, with a compelling study of obsessive desire that honors its source with an unblinking female gaze. ». – Variety
