The Living cannot understand The Dying
4 July 2023
Intense uncompromising character drama about the individual freedom to determine your own way of dying, enjoying your love and life to the fullest as long as it's possible.

Vickie Krieps plays her difficult main part with great intensity and sensitivity. I have never seen herself acting better than here.

Her partner played with no less vulnerability by the late Gaspar Ulliel. The film makes you really miss one of the best French actors of his generation. Emily Atef directs a beautiful and deep story, breathtaking photography in the Norway sequences. If the end doesn't break your heart, you don't have one.
