Why watch this film?

It can be said that 'Blue is the Warmest Color' is one of the most controversial and provocative films of recent times. Controversial for the director, Abdellatif Kechiche, was accused by the protagonists Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa Seydoux of being forced to film intense sex scenes for hours without protection or pauses. And provocative because the film, winner of the Palme d'Or of Cannes in 2013, brings a story outside the norms about an overwhelming romance between two girls. Going beyond the merits of Kechiche's direction, the film ends up being of the two actresses, who carry all the transformations and complexities of their characters on their backs. It is an intense movie, with strong and explicit moments, but which ends up bringing a good story of relationships and discoveries.
