Neil Young The Hollywood Reporter Built four-square around Ariane Labed's engaging turn as eponymous sailor Alice, this feature debut from actress-turned-writer-director Lucie Borleteau strikes a delicate balance between the sensual and the matter-of-fact. May 23, 2016 Full Review Peter Debruge Variety Easily the most fascinating film to come along and challenge traditional gender roles in the past year. May 23, 2016 Full Review Tara Brady Irish Times There are many commendable things about Lucie Borleteau's debut feature. Rated: 4/5 Feb 25, 2016 Full Review Josh Slater-Williams Vague Visages A collaborator of Claire Denis, Lucie Borleteau makes a memorable, sexy and intimate debut... Nov 14, 2023 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Borleteau creates an impressive character arc for its lead protagonist while sidestepping clichés. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 17, 2019 Full Review Matthew Anderson CineVue Fidelio succeeds in presenting a strong, albeit emotionally wayward, female lead in an environment dominated entirely by men. Much the same can be said for a sure-footed directorial performance. Rated: 3/5 Apr 8, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
