The Nature of Love
Sharp and sexy comedy that offers a fresh take on desire and fidelity in the 21st century.
Director: Monia Chokri
Overview
Sophie is a 40-year-old philosophy professor in a stable, but passionless, relationship. When her path crosses with Sylvain, the hunky builder renovating her chalet, she embarks on an all-consuming affair. French-Canadian director Monia Chokri brings all her sass and wits to bear on this shrewd portrait of a generation of women interrogating desire, fidelity and social norms.
