Hold Me Tight
Leaving April 30
•
1h 37m
Directed by Mathieu Amalric • 2021 • Germany, France
Starring Vicky Krieps, Arieh Worthalter, Anne-Sophie Bowen-Chatet
Directed by renowned actor and frequent filmmaker Mathieu Amalric, this virtuosic, daringly fluid portrait of a woman in crisis stars the ever-riveting Vicky Krieps as Clarisse, a woman on the run from her family for reasons that aren’t immediately clear. Alternating between Clarisse’s adventures on the road and scenes of her abandoned husband Marc (Arieh Worthalter) as he struggles to take care of their children at home, HOLD ME TIGHT keeps viewers uncertain as to the reality of what they’re seeing until the final moments—yielding a family drama that’s uniquely unpredictable, moving, and richly rewarding.
