Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Hippolyte Girardot cast his own daughter Noë Sampy after she improvised during rehearsals; much of her dialogue was rewritten to capture her authentic speech patterns.
The film emerged from the French 'cinema du corps' movement and Suwa's 'borderless cinema' philosophy — shot without complete scripts, privileging the children's actual reactions over narrative convention.
