‘Bright Sunshine In’ Trailer: Juliette Binoche Stars In Claire Denis’ New Film

Claire Denis is currently filming her highly anticipated, very ambitious sci-fi “High Life” starring Robert Pattinson, but while we wait, she has something else to share. Earlier this year, the revered filmmaker knocked out “Bright Sunshine In,” and within a matter of months, had it ready in time for the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight. Now it’s starting to roll out around the globe, and the first trailer has landed.

Juliette Binoche, Gérard Depardieu, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Nicolas Duvauchelle, Josiane Balasko, and Xavier Beauvois star in the loose adaptation of philosopher Roland Barthes’ “A Lover’s Discourse: Fragments,” which follows Isabelle, a divorced, single mother, who searches for romantic and sexual fulfillment. Unfortunately, for the usually terrific Denis, this one misses the mark, with Jessica Kiang writing in her review that the film is an “unprecedented misfire” by the director.

“Bright Sunshine In” will screen at the New York Film Festival, and be released in the U.S. by Sundance Selects. No date has been set just yet. [Cine Maldito]
