Anaïs in Love (Charline Bourgeois-Tacquet, 2021), 11.20pm, Film4
The French effortlessly turn out romantic dramas about the self-obsessed middle class that feel comforting and challenging. Charline Bourgeois-Tacquet’s debut feature is a seductive example, following literature student Anaïs (Anaïs Demoustier) as she rushes through life with abandon. That is until she meets and falls for an older woman, author Emilie (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi), who is the partner of a middle-aged publisher with whom Anaïs is having an unsatisfying fling. Emilie is a wiser head with a more nuanced view of love and desire, and the interplay between the two is captivating. Simon Wardell
