Come Undone is the coming-of-age romance French-style, with emotions nuanced, effects subtle. But it's also achingly slow, at times bleak and, in the end, frustratingly and regrettably, rather pointless.
Loren King, Boston Globe
Overview
Story of two gorgeous, young French boys who begin a passionate relationship that boils over and threatens to destroy both their lives. Shy 18-year-old Mathieu is on summer vacation in the south of France. He spends his days lazily sunning himself at the beach, until he spies the handsome Cédric and falls in love.

While Come Undone has some explicit material, what makes it a mature and special work is its embrace of the knotty and unfamiliar.

Those who like to explore movies will find plenty to admire.

Although Come Undone deals with serious, difficult subjects ... it handles them kindly and with little angst.
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
Fresh
A delicately managed piece that is by turns intimately detailed and elliptical.
Desmond Ryan, Philadelphia Inquirer
