Plot

A doctor tries to identify a dead girl.

Sinekatalog’s take

The Dardenne brothers' quiet detective drama has a doctor trying to learn a dead girl's name. Adèle Haenel is excellent, and the film is restrained, moral and tense, if less moving than their best.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
