2023 Cannes Clip: Rémy & Sandra Are Super Open in Ann Sirot & Raphaël Balboni’s The (Ex)perience of Love

Date:

Sure to add some spice and throw some intellectual stimuli to what is the norm for the heteronormative — Belgium filmmaker tandem Ann Sirot and Raphaël Balboni bring some laughs to the Critics’ Week (05.20) with The (Ex)perience of Love aka Le Syndrome des Amours Passées. The Special Screening selection tells the tale of Rémy (Lazare Gousseau) and Sandra (Lucie Debay) cannot procreate as they are suffering from “The Past Love Syndrome”. There’s only one cure: have sex one more time with all of their exes. In this clip the couple need to make that weird phone call to their exes.
