This is very French. A lot of French movies, it seems, are fairly non-theatrical. They have detailed plots and great characters, but they're low-key. All the good characters are genuinely good - I feel that's common among a lot of foreign films - the good guys are faithful, loyal, honorable characters. Despite their struggles, they don't turn on people. I appreciate that. It's a good story and it has that cute, silly romance of French films, romance in the sense that the film woos you into the characters and situation they face. It's creative, but not flowery, which makes it harder to watch, but well worth it. Honestly, I think it could've been better with a slightly intensified execution of plot and maybe some more diverse composition/camera moves, but it has heart and is rather intriguing.
Watch it.
