Summary

In the near future, Clarissa, a novelist with writer’s block, joins a prestigious, state-of-the-art artist residency where she’s assigned an AI assistant named Dalloway. The latter quickly becomes more than a simple assistant and turns into a true confidante for Clarissa. Unsettled by Dalloway’s increasing intrusion, Clarissa is warned by whistleblower Mathias, who informs her of the true motives behind the residency and its tech company funder. Clarissa begins to suspect that this seemingly perfect situation is in fact a meticulously crafted trap.

Viewers find 'The Residence' a thought-provoking exploration of AI's role in creativity, highlighted by Cécile de France's compelling performance. While the film's aesthetic and futuristic setting are praised, criticisms focus on its predictable plot and lack of depth in some themes, which sometimes prevent full emotional engagement. The mix of drama and thriller elements in a French sci-fi context is seen as both unique and audacious.

👍 Cécile de France's performance stands out.

👎 Plot predictability and superficial treatment of themes.

Intéressant l’emprise de l’iA. La domotique dans l’appart.

Pose pleins de questions sur les dérives de l'IA, mais aussi sur le narratif de l'artiste qui doit souffrir pour extraire son art. Je ne suis pas tellement d'accord avec ça tout en comprenant que c'est le cas pour certain·es d'entre eux. Cécile est bien crédible, on croit en sa souffrance. L'intrigue prends le temps de se mettre en place. La fin en bouche un coin. Bon film!

Le pouvoir de l’IA est un peu inquiétant… en revanche Cecile de France est très crédible 🙂
