Synopsis
Orphan (Orpheline, 2017) is Arnaud des Pallières' French drama, and you can watch it online on iFILM. One woman, four ages, four actresses — and a story told out of order.
The film traces a single life backwards. We meet a poised Parisian who believes her past can't reach her, then the young woman who nearly went under in the city, then a teenager on a darker road, and finally the little girl where it all started. Played by Adèle Exarchopoulos, Adèle Haenel, Solène Rigot and Gemma Arterton, these four figures slowly resolve into the same person, leaving the audience to reassemble her history piece by piece.
This is quiet, grown-up cinema about how old damage follows you and how, eventually, you outrun it. Skip it if you want a straight plot; stay for the mood and the editing. Stream Orphan (2017) online on iFILM.
