Editor’s note: In summary, Slalom (2020) is a compelling drama with a personal touch. Director Charlène Favier masterfully focuses on character development rather than relying on superficial storytelling. The cast, particularly Noée Abita, Jérémie Renier, and Marie Denarnaud, bring significant emotional depth to the narrative. With a runtime of 1 hour and 32 minutes, it unfolds at a deliberate pace and seldom drags. While not without its flaws, the film’s merits surpass its imperfections. If this concept resonates with you, be sure to add it to your watchlist.
