The Rembrandt Syndrome

"In French cinema, the supernatural is often used very heavily, without any poetry, which is not the case here. Schoeller draws inspiration from Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, and the fantastical works of Oscar Wilde."

“A feature film that is rich in narrative, yet very clear and highly original.”

“A film with warm colours and an unexpected aura, which highlights the sensitivity of human beings who see something other than paint in the greatest masterpieces of art.”

“Captivating in its uniqueness, it is undoubtedly one of the most original films of the year.”

“Between existential crisis and climate anxiety, a captivating work of fiction that questions our relationship with progress.”

“The Rembrandt Syndrome never ceases to question, stimulate, and even captivate at its best (elegant sequences in the museum).”

Supported by the powerful performances of the actors, led by Camille Cottin, whose role resembles Ingrid Bergman's in ‘Europe 51’.

“Camille Cottin masterfully portrays this woman in the throes of a crisis of conscience, pushed to the brink of madness.”

“In this new feature film, Pierre Schoeller tackles France's untouchable subject: nuclear power. In an unexpected plot twist, the awakening of consciousness comes as a revelation.”

"A poetic and captivating film about the beauty and fragility of this world."
