MEANWHILE ON EARTH - Jérémy Clapin - 2024 - ★★★
---
Conceptual, dreamlike, an intimate story with a unique tone, carried by seductive animation and a melancholic atmosphere. The brotherly relationship is touching in its delicacy, and some visual gems leave a lasting impression. The uneven pace and some overly emphatic symbols dilute the emotion, leaving an impression of an unfinished work despite its good intentions.

PENDANT CE TEMPS SUR TERRE - Jérémy Clapin - 2024 - ★★★
---
Conceptuel, onirique,1 récit intime au ton singulier, porté par une animation et une atmosphère mélancolique séduisantes. La relation fraternelle touche par sa délicatesse, et quelques trouvailles visuelles marquent les esprits. Le rythme inégal et certains symboles trop appuyés diluent l’émotion, laissant une impression d’œuvre inaboutie malgré de belles intentions.
