If you loved La vida de Adèle, try Mektoub, My Love: Canto uno
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado.

Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Abdellatif Kechiche, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to La vida de Adèle, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Mektoub, My Love: Canto uno is
A desert romance seasoned like over-salted fries. Amin, a frustrated writer, summers in Sète reconnecting with family, friends and flirtations around the harbour. Turns out family barbecues and bar flirtations can’t be scripted from a Paris café.
