A poignant reflection on work, family, and self-discovery

Another World (Un autre monde, 2021), directed by Stéphane Brizé, is a compelling drama that explores the personal and professional struggles of Philippe Lemesle (Vincent Lindon), a successful executive caught between the demands of his high-pressure job and the unraveling of his family life. As Philippe's work consumes him, his marriage to his wife, played by Sandrine Kiberlain, deteriorates, setting the stage for a heartfelt examination of priorities, sacrifices, and the search for balance in an increasingly fractured world.Lindon delivers a nuanced and deeply empathetic performance as Philippe, capturing the internal conflict of a man who has climbed the corporate ladder but is now facing the emotional cost of his success. Kiberlain is equally impressive as his wife, portraying the hurt and disillusionment of a woman who feels neglected and betrayed by her partner's career ambitions. The chemistry between the two actors adds emotional weight to their characters' deteriorating relationship, making their struggles feel both personal and universal.Brizé's direction is intimate and restrained, allowing the story to unfold in a naturalistic manner. The pacing is deliberate, giving viewers time to reflect on the complexities of Philippe's choices without feeling rushed. The film's muted cinematography mirrors the emotional tone, using subtle visuals to convey the growing tension in both Philippe's professional and personal life.Thematically, Another World tackles the human cost of corporate culture, the breakdown of personal relationships under work pressures, and the search for meaning beyond career success. The film does an excellent job of illustrating how these external pressures shape individual lives and decisions, without offering easy solutions. The conclusion, while not offering full resolution, invites the audience to reflect on the choices we make in the pursuit of success.Rating: 8/10. A deeply human and thought-provoking film that examines the impact of professional pressures on personal life, anchored by strong performances and a thoughtful narrative.

Going down in hopeless business of no humanity

We never learn what his industry and business is all about, while we have reasons to suspect it is in the field of cars, and throughout the film we expect something to happen, which it never does. It is all about business and business talk at board meetings, there is no drama here, but Vincent Lindon makes a great character of the industrialist who is up to his neck in crises, both domestic and in his job, his only son has been temporarily confined to a ward after having threatened his teacher with dividers, his daughter has her business in America, and his wife is filing for divorce, while his employees are worried about the future of his business, as they fear some notice, and his boss in America of his multinational enterprise is worried about the way he is handling the European branch. We get deeply involved in all his troubles and fear some disaster to occur to release the tension, and it does, but with eloquence, and Vincent Lindon at least manages to save his face and his family. It is actually a story of honour, and as such it is of great interest, although you get as much fed up with all his business as his wife does.
