See the Sea
When stranger knocks...
Directed by François Ozon
Produced by Local Films, Fidélité Productions
A slow-burn psychological thriller about two women whose tentative connection becomes increasingly unsettling, built on mounting dread and interpretive uncertainty.
Sasha, a young British woman, is living with her baby daughter at Ile d'Yeu, a peaceful beach community. A stranger appears. Her name is Tatiana, she's passing through, and pitches her tent in Sasha's yard. The two women build an odd rapport, and tension builds as events unfold.
