Drame de Ariane Labed, avec Mia Tharia, Pascale Kann, Rakhee Thakrar (Angleterre, 1h38). En salle le 19 février ★★★★☆
"September & July" follows two nearly identical sisters who retreat into a paranoid delusion to cope with hostility from their peers. The film, directed by Ariane Labed, explores themes of toxic sorority, self-hatred, and rebellion, while balancing abrasive burlesque and affectionate irony. Though it shares a dark tone with Coralie Fargeat's "The Substance," it differs in its approach, focusing on a retorse and torve narrative rather than satire. The film masterfully navigates a complex emotional landscape, creating a compelling and unsettling story.
