Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Directors Schefer and Mréjen are also visual artists; the film originated as a gallery installation about looking and being looked at.
This was Adèle Haenel's return to acting after a five-year hiatus — she would later win a César and famously walk out on Polanski's win.
