_____
Ali meets Stéphanie, an orca trainer, when he has a job as a bouncer, after he and his son moved in with his sister. Stéphanie is involved in a fight and Ali brings her home and gives her his number. A few weeks (or months) later, Stéphanie is attacked by one of her orcas and she loses both her legs. At the same time, Ali is a street fighter for a living.

I wanted to see this movie because I adore Marion Cotillard. I can say she hasn't let me down. The acting was amazing, the story was really moving, though a little heavy for some people. The dialogues are (as far as I can judge with French text) very realistic. I think it's really a must see.
