Olivier is a workaholic, but when his wife, Laura, vanishes from the family home, he must face up to his responsibilities to their two children.

Guy Lodge

Variety

Senez's unassuming but deeply humane film finds no sentimental solutions or homilies to guide its characters through - merely the assurance that even one bad day isn't quite like the next.

The Hollywood Reporter

This is another solid work from Senez, even if the film never quite packs the same punch as his knockout debut did.

Although Our Struggles might eventually feel too slight to make a major impression, it's a well-crafted working class drama on resiliency and sacrifice.

Rated: 3/5

This modest but convincing film benefits from a fine ensemble cast and a committed central performance by Romain Duris.
