Critic Manon Kerjean takes us through the week’s French film releases, starting with an assured début from Alice Vial. “You Found Me” deals with medical emergencies, mortality and a medium who helps souls leave our earthly realm, managing to balance its heavy subject matter with a gentle tone. We also discuss “Love Me Tender”, Anna Cazenave Cambet’s adaptation of a novel by author Constance Debré, in which a mother is left fighting for the right to raise her child. Motherhood is also a theme in Jérôme Bonnell’s film “The Condition”, which explores the power dynamics in a bourgeois home in early 20th century France, and we check out the psychologically driven “The Girl Without a Name”, featuring an impressive performance from young actress Diane Rouxel.
