It's a summer heatwave in Marseille, and best friends Ruby, Élise, and Nicole are just trying to live their best lives. But when they're attacked by a neighbor, an act of self-defense leads to them trying to hide his body. Unfortunately, his ghost won't stop bothering them. Gloriously gory and funny, The Balconettes is a gleefully original slice of feminist film.
Hvor å se The Balconettes
- Kevin Ward30. juni 2025The Balconettes, the second feature from Noémie Merlant, is a sun-drenched midnight riot packed with gore, ghostly detours, and feminist fury. Three Marseille roommates take revenge into their own hands after a predatory neighbor crosses the line—spiraling into one wild, genre-blending night. Merlant kicks things off with a near-16-minute long cold open and a bold movie-star entrance—dressed in full Marilyn Monroe garb, lit by a single diagonal beam of light as she bursts into their checkered tile-floor apartment. From there, it’s buddy comedy meets body horror (severed penis included), wrapped in a candy-colored fever dream. Not a single redeemable man in sight—and that’s the point. Messy, vengeful, and unbothered. Just how I like it.
