The Nature of Love - Monia Chokri

Monia Chokri is a superb actress who has made her mark as a director on three films. Her visual sensibility and meticulousness earned her the admiration of the Un Certain Regard Jury in 2019, for La Femme de mon frère (A Brother’s Love). Today, she is presenting Simple comme Sylvain (The Nature of Love) which follows the torments of Sophia, a philosophy teacher. She has been in a relationship for ten years but falls in love at first sight when she meets Sylvain, a carpenter from a completely different world to her own.

This movie doesn't have pretension and looks amazing. Simple story of a forty woman who met a man who's the opposite of his actual boyfriend. All their story looks natural and also absurd. The entire audience were laughing because of the situations and the dialogue. Monia Chokri tries many orginals shots that makes the story more absurd and dynamic.
