Becomes a quiet tribute to friendship, and to the way that something torn can be made perfect again.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

Eleonore Faucher's quietly assured debut is a lovely, almost painfully intimate story of female bonding that never panders to its characters or its audience.
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News

In this decorous trifle from France, the director Eleonore Faucher builds her story with studied deliberation and piece by precious piece.
