Why this pick
A compassionate, physically immediate French portrait of marginal lives, chosen family, and the longing to be loved without being reshaped.
Why this pick
Its close, naturalistic camera and restrained pacing echo Sauvage’s attention to a young man navigating desire, isolation, and an emotionally unforgiving environment.
Why this pick
Matches the raw romantic ache and nocturnal vulnerability of Sauvage, following desire and self-invention with lyrical but unvarnished intensity.
