Sandrine Bonnaire portrays a 15-year-old Parisian girl, Suzanne, who escapes from her volatile homelife and agonizing confusion about love and its complexity. As her coping mechanism, Suzanne falls into a pattern of impulsive promiscuity which makes her unsentimental and cynical to the idea of love in relation to sexuality. À Nos Amours is far from the conventional coming-of-age narrative, with director Maurice Pialat’s perspective on the intricate matters he is scrutinizing conveyed in exceptionally insightful and brutally honest fashion.
