A haunting journey through trauma and resilience with a great script, casting and direction. In the aftermath of a horrific terrorist attack on a Parisian bistro, Mia, a survivor, grapples with the devastating impact of the tragedy. While attempting to piece together the events of that fateful night and making amends with the city she once adored, she sets out on a mission to reclaim her life. Alice Winocour’s moving and thought-provoking film explores the psychological effects of trauma and the enduring power of the human spirit. Virginie Efira delivers a compelling performance as Mia, her expressive eyes and subtle gestures conveying the profound emotional turmoil she faces. The film’s narrative unfolds with a quiet intensity, mirroring the protagonist’s fragmented memories and the lingering trauma that binds her to the past. Revoir Paris is a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of trauma, resilience, and the enduring power of human connection. It is a film that lingered in my mind long after the credits rolled, prompting me to reflect on the fragility of life and the strength we find within ourselves to overcome adversity. A fine film, not to be missed.
