Blue Is the Warmest Colour

Blue Is the Warmest Colour, released in French as La Vie d'Adele, Chapitres 1 et 2, is a 2013 romantic drama directed by Abdellatif Kechiche, a co-production of France, Belgium and Spain. It follows Adele, a French teenager, through her sexual awakening and evolving relationship with Emma, an aspiring painter, from Adele's high school years into her early adulthood as a schoolteacher, exploring desire, identity and class across the years of their relationship. At the 2013 Cannes Film Festival the jury took the unprecedented step of awarding the Palme d'Or jointly to director Kechiche and to lead actresses Lea Seydoux and Adele Exarchopoulos, and the film also won the festival's FIPRESCI Prize. It received wide critical acclaim, with more than forty critics naming it among the best films of 2013, though it also drew controversy over its explicit content and reported working conditions on set.
