Between Two Worlds

Marianne Winckler (Juliette Binoche), a well-known author, goes to live in northern France to research for her new book on the subject of job insecurity. Without revealing her true identity, she gets hired as a cleaner, working with a group of other women. In this new role, she experiences financial instability and social invisibility first-hand. But she also discovers mutual assistance and solidarity, strong bonds shared by these behind-the-scenes working women.

Critic Reviews:

• " The brilliant Binoche literally rolls up her sleeves with a physical but deftly subtle turn. " – Hilary A White (Sunday Independent, Ireland)

• " The film has a loose, documentary style that feels bracingly realistic, full of offbeat details and punchy anecdotes. And the intimate approach makes it an engaging, important look at insecure employment. " – Rich Cline (Shadows on the Wall)

• " Although Binoche is the film's star, her presence is smartly muted, allowing us time and space to discover the world as she does, and providing room for complexity in considering the ethics of his character's work and of Carrère's film itself. " – Dave Calhoun (Time Out)
