If you loved Menschliche Dinge, try Die brillante Mademoiselle Neïla
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Yvan Attal, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Menschliche Dinge, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Die brillante Mademoiselle Neïla is
A Parisian university, late afternoon, a worn lecture hall. A provocative professor and his wounded student prepare for a speech contest, their complicated past looming. Yvan Attal balances humor and pathos with a delicate touch.
