A perfectly balanced piece of comfort cinema.
Your mid-20s are a time of displacement where there isn't an expected path anymore. Our friends move in different directions at different speeds, and it's hard to stay connected. Contradictions of life at this time are played out holistically yet succinctly in Frances Ha. Shot on digital, but in black and white. A modern setting and dialogue, soundtracked with music from the past. It's about wanting to progress, but not being ready to action the changes that will get you there. Holding on in a comfort zone that pulls itself out from underneath you, but ultimately finding your feet.
