The latest feature from the 80-year-old French director (‘Wild Reeds,’ ‘My Favorite Season’) premiered in Berlin’s Panorama sidebar.

as a grieving cop who finds herself living next door to an anti-police activist, the film tells a worthy and timely story, but strains credulity from the get-go and never manages to win us over.Téchiné, who’s now 80, has had some hits and misses in his long career, which includes a string of arthouse successes from the 1990s that turned him into an esteemed international auteur.

Lucie quickly warms up to her neighbors, babysitting for Rose and offering the couple gardening tips. When she leans about Yann’s political vocations, she decides to hide the fact that she’s a cop. Like many things in, this seems like a stretch.

Huppert is usually the best thing about the movies she stars in, but her performance here seems as muddled as her character, and there’s never a moment where she comes across credibly as a cop . Herzi and Pérez Biscayart fare better, although the couple tends to express every thought aloud, in a heavy-handed scenario that often feels closer to that of a TV movie.
