Review of See the Sea (1997) by Andreas K — 11 Sep 2008
Francois Ozon's 'See The Sea' may only be 52 minutes long, but my does it hit you!
The conclusion may be predictable, but it's no less shocking. From the moment the backpacker turns up it's obvious she's not quite right, though Sasha, through her loneliness is oblivious to it. Whilst Sasha may be lonely I find it hard to believe that any mother would not only leave their baby with a stranger, but also leave them alone on a beach whilst they go off looking for casual sex.
Overall a very disturbing film but no doubt effective, fans of Ozon should defiantly try and see it.
