Lou n’a pas dit non
When
Wed 11 Nov 2026
Inspired by the correspondences between Russian-born psychoanalyst Lou Andreas-Salomé and German poet Rainer Maria Rilke, this romantic drama follows a pair of former lovers (Marie Bunel and Manuel Blanc) across a period of stagnation and flux. Featuring Miéville’s characteristically “stunning cinematic choreography” (Albertine Fox), this is a passionate yet tender and reserved portrait of a couple’s troubled relationship and its aftermath. A cerebral exploration of love and art, accompanied by footage shot at the Louvre and an exquisite classical music score.
