5 X 2 - Five Times Two
The story of Gilles and Marion, a modern Parisian couple in their 30s, filmed in five crucial parts of their relationship - meeting, marriage, childbirth, arguments, and divorce, but in reverse order. François Ozon (8 WOMEN, SWIMMING POOL) delivers a brilliant, though pessimistic, life lesson about the difficulties of living as a couple.
