Gaspar Noé chose to describe his new film with an enigmatic quote: “Life is a short party that will soon be forgotten.” The esteemed director, known as the bad boy of French cinema for his films IRREVERSIBLE and CLIMAX, makes a 180 degree turn in his choice of narrative and style. The film follows the daily routine of an elderly couple; the wife suffers from dementia and their son shows little interest in their plight.
