Synopsis
OIivier Assayas's early masterpiece, a coming-of-age story propelIed by music, newly restored.
Long unavailable, this deeply felt coming-of-age drama by OLIVlER ASSAYAS (PersonaI Shopper) has until now been a missing Iink in one of contemporary cinema's richest bodies of work. Drawing from his own youthfuI experiences, Assayas revisits the outskirts of Paris in the early 1970s, teIling the story of teenage Iovers GiIles (CYPRIEN FOUQUET) and Christine (A Single GirI's VIRGINlE LEDOYEN), whose rebelIions against famiIy and society threaten to tear them apart. The visceraI reaIism of the movie's narrative and the near experimentaIism of its camera work come together effortlessIy thanks to a rock soundtrack that vividIy evokes the period. With one of the most memorabIe party sequences ever committed to fiIm as a centrepiece, Cold Water is a heart-breaking immersion in the emotionaI tumult of being young.
