Quote:
By Louise Narboni

Elodie is a Parisian Baroque singer, and Ahmad is an Afghan refugee; Chanson Triste tells the story of their impossible love. Through a unique mix of documentary and fiction, music and poetry, re-enactment and reality, the viewer learns how Elodie became Ahmad’s tutor and how he, in turn, became her muse.

But they both have painful pasts. Elodie is haunted by her ex-boyfriend’s suicide, while Ahmad deals with the reality of being a refugee from Afghanistan, and a Muslim in Europe. Chanson Triste is a story of songs and introspection, hope and disappointment, but mostly, it’s a story of love.

“By giving her two protagonists a playful space and time to share, director Louise Narboni succeeds in telling a fantasy-romance.

Ahmad Shinwari and Elodie Fonnard appear as complete, young and lovely people, with their own emotions, longings and projects. They play a game; the characters and the scenes that they choose to create surprise us. They tell us more about their feelings, hopes and dreams than any filmed interview would.

The full transparency of the movie and its commitment to the bitter-sweet characters’ feelings define the refreshing and hearty modernity of Louise Narboni’s Chanson Triste.”
