Innocence

At a peculiar all-girls academy, new arrivals, including Iris, are delivered in coffins. Guided by enigmatic teachers, the students dance through enchanted woods by day, while the night unveils sinister lessons that blur innocence and awakening.

Directed by Lucile Hadžihalilović, Innocence leans on a strong ensemble — Zoé Auclair, Lea Bridarolli, Bérangère Haubruge — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2005.
