Comme si de rien n'était

No previously written or determined way one will deal with a severe ordeal. The girl was raped and, the minute after, she wishes to dominate it by contention and absorption of the event within herself. I believe that would be a way for her of not getting dominated by the event or by the perpetrator. At a certain point, however, she looses it and drops the cool. And then she is the one who dominates and confronts her raper. At this moment, when she finally lost her cool, she has at the same time won. Why not? Annae's smile and eyes are though out the movie so multidimensional! She smiles but her eyes don't. She looks cool all along but her smile implies something else. As in Mona Lisa. Great time watching this movie, it really adds to anything else I have seen before.

All Is Well has all the hallmarks of a modern art house movie. The abbreviated scenes, the prolonged silences and the confrontational subject matter. It was very interesting to see a rape story played out in this way, with the perpetrator not portrayed as a calculated psychopath living on the outskirts of society but as a functioning and respected citizen who is capable of both intense cruelty and actual remorse.

The lead performance from Aenne Schwarz is exceptional and helps keep the film afloat through it's more hesitant moments. A poignant and challenging piece of cinema.

What a strange movie. I was moderately connected to this story that portrays a woman acting as if nothing had happened, on any occasion: during a rape after a drunken evening, during a game between colleagues at a seminar, ... She is bland and lacks conviction. The actress Aenne Schwarz is extremely beautiful and plays sensitively, but the film lacks coherence, following an imperfect realization. Disappointing because of a feeling of incompleteness.

.... I haven't ever seen anything as dull as this before. That's quite an accomplishment.

Shows how a young woman copes with suffering in the aftermath of a sexual abuse by someone from her office. If the viewer expects to experience a fast paced emotional drama this is not the thing as it is implied in the title, in my opinion what they have in mind is how it feels to subdue everything that is bubbling inside which slowly lead to affect the mind and social relations in daily life. Unexpected cut off ending
