Art imitates life in this intelligently crafted, superbly acted, and elegantly playful backstage drama. At the peak of her international career, Maria Enders (Juliette Binoche) is asked to perform in a revival of the play that made her famous twenty years ago. Then, she played the role of Sigrid, an alluring young girl who drives her boss Helena to suicide. Now, she’s being asked to play the older Helena. She departs with her young assistant (Kristen Stewart) to rehearse in Sils Maria, a remote region of the Alps. A young Hollywood starlet (Chloë Grace Moretz) with a penchant for scandal has taken on the role of Sigrid, and Maria finds herself on the other side of the mirror, face to face with a charming woman who is an unsettling reflection of herself. This excellent performance-driven piece offers some of the most complex and richly textured roles for women in years.
