Sandrine à Paris

About This Movie

So, 'Sandrine à Paris' is quite a raw piece. It’s a documentary that dives into the life of this young woman, Sandrine, who navigates Parisian streets with a pickpocket's flair. Her storytelling is pretty candid, no frills, just her experiences laid bare — arriving in Paris broke, the thrill of the chase, and those dark nights in prison. The pacing has this almost casual rhythm, which contrasts nicely with the gravity of what she’s sharing. There’s a certain melancholy that hangs in the air, especially when she mirrors the sentiments of the cop who nabbed her. It’s not polished, but that’s part of its charm. Feels real, you know? A snapshot of a life on the edge.
