This film does seem confusing to viewers, and as far as I know the director has not come out to come down to earth regarding the story. If we the viewers spend 90 minutes of our life watching it, the director should at least comment publicly for us so we will not have wasted our time. Towards the end of the film I pieced together a very beautiful yet serious and thoughtful and unforgettable story, a story in which I know who the three women were and what they represented and why they did what they did. I give the film with that story 10 stars. However, that may not be the same story that the director had in mind. In such case, I give the film 1 star for having a clumsy director. Since I don't know, I will go mid-range and give it 5 stars on imdb. Really, the story that appeared in my mind is beautiful and unforgettable. Maybe I should have been the director.
Alice and her older sister Manon have had a very close relationship from childhood, especially from the standpoint of Alice. Alice is lesbian and has a very physical relationship with Elsa, who is older than Manon and provides Alice with financial support. Alice fears she is about to lose Manon to marriage and motherhood and is intensely jealous. I really liked the film, but it requires close attention to detail and the reading of emotion.. I suspect that whoever wrote the plot keywords did not understand about Elsa and confused her with Manon. I fault the film in that I had to watch it twice in succession. To me Elsa and Manon look too much alike, but I think I got things straight with that second viewing. Note the hair and facial features to know who is who and to recognize flashbacks. Nonetheless a beautiful film of lesbian emotion. I also liked the music.
