Other People's Children (2022)

Fear of woman and worries about to have children

[7/10 · 26 October 2022]

I found the film very sensual and intimate. We enter the life of Rachel, Ali and their fears as well as their fears. Rachel is a woman whose private life is unveiled and her intimacy (shots of her naked that I appreciated and found funny when she finds herself naked in the balcony). We understand that she has difficulty having a child and that she would like to have one (problem that any woman can experience one day in her life). And suddenly, she meets Ali (I find the relationship Viriginie Effira and Roschdy Zem fusional and very credible on screen). On the other hand, I found Rachel's attachment to Leila quite brief and the subtlety of their relationship is not entirely explicit enough, which makes it a fairly superficial relationship and this woman's desire to have a child. The film was more centered on Rachel and Ali, each of whom will express their fears and fears (Rachel and the lack she feels when she sees Leila). I found Ali also interesting but not central because it is clear that it is more Rachel's story. What more can be said? Except that I had a good time with them and shared their intimacy. Whether it is with the gynecologist, Leila or Ali, we have neither more nor less the fears and fears of a woman of not being able to have a child as well as her attachment to Leila which will not last. And also the separation with Ali. There was also Rachel's relationship with one of her students, but it is quite futile and superfluous in the central theme of the film: the woman. A film that I was able to appreciate as a man and the different moments of intimacy create a fairly instant closeness with Rachel. Touching movie. Movie that I recommend.
