Spect.Viewers find 'Water Lilies' emotionally stirring, particularly praising its portrayal of adolescent lesbian love and the complexities of young relationships. The film's minimalistic style, characterized by sparse dialogue and music, intensifies the emotional landscape, though some found this made the plot difficult to follow. Adèle Haenel's performance is consistently highlighted as a standout. While the film resonates deeply with some, capturing the awkwardness and intensity of youth, others felt alienated by its slow pace and ambiguous storytelling.
👍 Adèle Haenel's performance shines.
👎 Plot can be confusing and slow.

De Céline Sciamma (2007), avec Adèle Haenel, éblouissante de jeunesse ! L'histoire de 3 adolescentes qui découvrent la cruauté de leur âge et des relations amoureuses.
Plussss de films comme ça svp
Recommandé par Memorizer, car vous avez aimé 'Portrait de la jeune fille en feu'.
Le film est court mais prenant, l'amour-amitié entre les deux personnages féminins nous laissent dans le flou tout au long du film. C'est un film complexe, qui se regarde pourtant sans peine. Nous sommes captivés durant les 1h30.

Fin décevante mais réaliste
