Three by Mia Hansen-Løve

Featuring a new introduction by Hansen-Løve Contemporary French cinema’s heir to the delicately naturalistic, profoundly humanist sensibility of Éric Rohmer, Mia Hansen-Løve mines the raw materials of her own life and family story to create gracefully empathetic explorations of people in states of emotional flux. From a filmmaker facing mounting pressures both at home and at work in Father of My Children to a teenage girl experiencing heartbreak in Goodbye First Love to a middle-aged woman attempting to restart her life after her husband leaves her in the Isabelle Huppert–starring Things to Come , Hansen-Løve’s films find rich philosophical insight in the moments that test us the most.
