Marie and Boris decide to get a divorce after 15 years of marriage. Tensions rise when cash-strapped Boris must continue to live with Marie and the two children while trying to figure out how to divide the assets.

Critics Consensus

After Love isn't easy viewing, but its brutally honest examination of a crumbling family offers powerful performances and penetrating insights that make it well worth the effort.

2/4

It's a lot of skill and talent expended on a spat a good lawyer could probably have sorted out during the opening credit sequence. Instead Lafosse offers a lot of the "after," and none of the "love."

3/5

For most of its running time, director and co-writer Joachim Lafosse gives the impression that he's drilled a hole into the side of a married couple's home in order to afford audiences an unmediated, worm's eye view of their gradual dissolution.

Messy and ungovernable at its strongest, Lafosse's film is a story of heartbreak and real estate and, not least, money, viewed from within the still-smoldering ruins.

4/5

After Love is a film of harsh truths and humanistic empathy, finding a middle ground between love turned to hate and tolerance so that one may more fully love one's children.

Bejo and Kahn are so good at illustrating shades of cruelty and kindness in their performances that it's near impossible not to feel the tension and volatility of the situation.

4/5

After Love is a very realistic, touching, and at times poignant even view on a couple's separation, divorce, and division of assets.

This portrait of a gradual break-up is grinding yet human. The director arouses great sympathy in us for mum, dad and the twin girls, and the actors play their parts so perfectly such that you resist siding with one against the other. You feel for both man and woman, and wring your hands at the impending, slow demise of their relationship, and the inevitable impact it will have on their delightful girls. One of the realest and least Hollywood movies I've seen in fair while.

Felt very real. The happy moments and the sadness. Even amicable break ups have these moments.

Difficult and honest look to an end of a relationship. It is hard going but with enough ups and down to be rewarding.
