Revoir Paris

'Paris Memories' explores the aftermath of a traumatic incident. Mia survived a terrorist attack at a restaurant, and three months later, she is still haunted by the attack. She is having trouble remembering the events, and attends support groups for the survivors.

Thanks to a good performance by Virginie Efira, we feel her agony, and desire to remember, which will ultimately allow her to move on. In the process, she distances herself from her boyfriend, Vincent. (I couldn't understand why Mia wanted to shut him out while he was trying to help her, but this is revealed later.)

Mia meets survivor Thomas, who remembers the incident very well. Helping her to remember, they develop feelings for each other. Mia also begins a quest to finding the man who comforted her during the attack by holding her hand.

Although this is a well made film and deeply emotional, I must be honest I eventually found it a bit boring. With quite a bit of talk, it wasn't all that exciting. I've never really been one for talky dramas, so forgive me for feeling this way. I did like the satisfying ending, though.
