Pupil: Adopted! (Critical)

If Pupil is an ensemble film about adoption and all the people involved in making it possible, one of the heroines of this long-term fight undeniably stands out from the crowd: Alice, the adopting woman, played masterfully by Elodie Bouchez. Although all the actors are great in the film (Sandrine Kiberlain, Gilles Lellouche at their best), his interpretation is moving.

It must be said that, as she explained to us with touching emotion, this character was quite close to her, in fact. Like Alice, she too had been waiting for a long time, rocked by the rhythm of illusions and disappointments… Not a baby, but simply just a beautiful role.
