Phew Love (2024) immerses us in the North of France, in the grayness of the 80s. This is where Clotaire, a lost young man from a working world, crosses paths with Jackie, a dreamy girl, eager to escape . Their love is dazzling, intense, almost animal.
But this love is also toxic, destructive. Like a curse, it leads Clotaire into a spiral of violence and delinquency, until it lands him behind bars for a crime he did not commit. Ten years later, marked by prison and haunted by the memory of Jackie, he tries to find her. Can love survive prison, pain, the passage of time? This is the question that Gilles Lellouche asks in this film with its dark and electric atmosphere.
The film was shot digitally using ARRI Alexa LF cameras. Released on October 16 in cinemas, Phew Love (2024) will be rediscovered in early 2025 in a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray edition on the French market. We are waiting for this Studiocanal edition on February 19.
Pre-orders are open.
