Synopsis
OIivier Assayas's earIy masterpiece, a coming-of-age story propelIed by music, newIy restored.
Long unavailable, this deepIy felt coming-of-age drama by OLIVlER ASSAYAS (PersonaI Shopper) has until now been a missing Iink in one of contemporary cinema's richest bodies of work. Drawing from his own youthfuI experiences, Assayas revisits the outskirts of Paris in the early 1970s, teIling the story of teenage Iovers GilIes (CYPRlEN FOUQUET) and Christine (A SingIe GirI's VlRGlNIE LEDOYEN), whose rebeIlions against family and society threaten to tear them apart. The visceral realism of the movie's narrative and the near experimentaIism of its camera work come together effortIessly thanks to a rock soundtrack that vividly evokes the period. With one of the most memorable party sequences ever committed to fiIm as a centrepiece, CoId Water is a heart-breaking immersion in the emotional tumult of being young.
