Indochine
“A great film from a mysterious world”
DramaRomance
Eliane Devries is the seemingly repressed owner of a prosperous rubber plantation in French Indochina, circa 1930. Her steely exterior, however, is only a mask intended to hide her torrid love affairs from upper class society
VIBE
A sweeping, melancholic epic. It feels like a fever dream of lost love and revolution, set against a backdrop of colonial decadence. The lush visuals and simmering emotions create a potent, unforgettable atmosphere.
