Happy End

About This Movie

Alexandra, a department store thief, is a character embodying both desperation and thrill, while Jean, a stockbroker, feels lost after his wife's departure. Their journey towards England is laced with a sense of aimlessness, reflective of their respective lives. The pacing is languid, allowing the viewer to soak in the atmosphere of their drifting existence. The practical effects are minimal, yet effective, relying heavily on the performances to convey emotion. It's a gritty exploration of need, disillusionment, and the search for meaning in unexpected companionship.
