The French version of Call Me By Your Name, but a little more twisted.

Ingrid Nimčević

I have to see, this movie defintely amazed me. I went to watch a movie w/o any expectations, but I was impressed. I suggest you to see it!

I loved the setting and the story was kinda interesting, but the pace was very slow

Ugh... Re-watched it 3 times, 3 times cried my eyes out... For me, it's a masterpiece

This made me cry but the movie was overall enjoyable!

The pacing, the story line, the sailing it’s all perfect

Margarida Isabel Rodrigues

It was super cute how they met. I wouldn't say it's a sad movie, more like an inspirational one

beautiful, sad, emotional, heart wrenching, nostalgic and heartwarming.

Both a beautiful love story and a sad and depressing episode of a ypung man...

This hurt me, but was a really good film!
