Plot Summary
The third film from acclaimed director Xavier Dolan (I Killed My Mother, Heartbeats) is an epic and visually stunning tale of impossible love. Laurence, a French teacher and soon-to-be-published author, enjoys an intense and mutually loving relationship with his fiancée, Frédérique. But on the day after his 35th birthday, Laurence confesses to Fred that he longs to become a woman, asking her to support his transformation. The film follows the course of the couple's on-again, off-again relationship throughout the 1990s.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: [Mr. Dolan] perfectly evokes the violating effect of a stranger's scrutiny and the imponderable depths of a lover's gaze.
Fresh: Fully immodest and intermittently astonishing.
Fresh: At nearly three hours, it's by turns an extraordinary and exhausting work.
Rotten: At nearly three hours, it's entirely too long, needlessly padded out with an intrusive interview-framing device.
Customer Reviews
Tragic love story
I loved this movie. The actings were superb. Emotionally charged performances especially from both main characters. The ending made me tear up, if only we know that their love will suffer but it's sure worth it.
Masterpiece
This film will break your heart. Visually stunning. The performances are incredible, especially the coffee shop scene.
