Max doesn’t dream of making green walls for five-star hotels. Tenacious landscaper, committed but cornered, he fights to create a wild garden, without fence, in the heart of downtown Marseille: a plant area open to all. After years of rejection, his project reached the final stage of an architecture competition. For Max, this is the last chance to offer oxygen to the people who are suffocating in an urban hell, under the beating sun.

Jonathan Holland Screen International Beating Sun is that rare beast, a compelling drama about town planning. Sep 5, 2022 Full Review Carson Timar Clapper While Beating Sun has an authentic heart, the final package is lacking. Without a strong enough follow-through or character to invest the audience and get them to buy into the film's drama, the feature ends up feeling twice as long as it actually is. Sep 5, 2022 Full Review Stephen Saito Moveable Fest Perhaps no greenery will get planted by the end of “Beating Sun,” but certainly a consciousness is. Sep 3, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
