L'amour des femmes

About This Movie

L'amour des femmes is a reflective piece set in the lush backdrop of 1980s Geneva, exploring the existential musings of three friends. The film's pacing is deliberate, mirroring the characters' struggles with love and identity, which gives it a thoughtful, almost meditative quality. Bruno, the architect, feels the weight of his loveless marriage, while Philippe's denial about separating from Sonia adds layers to his character. Then there's the younger Bruno, who seems to flit through life with casual encounters, yet there's depth beneath that bravado. The performances are raw and real, creating a palpable atmosphere that resonates with anyone who's grappled with the complexities of relationships. It's not flashy, but that's what makes it stand out—a quiet, introspective drama.
