Feature expansion of the NYICFF winning film from 2020 is a glorious little film that earns every damn emotion it elicits from us.
Te film tells the story of Violet. After her parents are killed in a terrorist attack she is sent to live with her uncle Regis, who stayed away from their family. It seems her family looked down on Regis and his job as a care taker at the Pa;ace of Versailles. While Regis tries to connect, Violet chaffes. Will the pair get along.
Oh, hell yeah, and the result is a glorious film. What makes this film work is that everyone in the film is a person and most of them are broken and damaged. We connect to the pair because they are us. The joy we feel at what happens is because we have felt the pain.
This film is magic- and by the time the ending comes you will be misty and wondering when we can spend time with Violet and Regis again.
See this film.
