Water Lilies

Women Directed

Dir. Céline Sciamma France 86 min

2007 Kino Lorber

During a summer in Paris, a love triangle develops between three girls in this provocative and perceptive portrait of teen angst and nascent sexuality. The awkward Anne, the bad girl Floriane, and the gawky Marie play an intense game of emotional chess as they wrestle with love, friendship, and their desire for one another. This debut from Céline Sciamma (Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Petite Maman) lends a gentle and preceptive approach to themes of girlhood and queerness, resulting in a film that understands the depth of emotion that growing up can come with while feeling hopeful.
