Louise Courvoisier’s debut feature HOLY COW, which screened at the Un Certain Regard section of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, is a tender coming-of-age film set in the French countryside. Its pleasurable story with themes of family, friendship, and infatuation is enhanced by natural performances from the non-professional actors, a vivid color palette, and some great music.
While it may not break any new ground, it is hard to imagine anyone not enjoying the film. It should not have a problem getting distribution in the US and most other territories. You’ll probably want to run to the market and get some cheese afterwards.
