Another World succeeds in captivating on the sheer strength of its caustic tone, which offers a sustained performance of ice-cold contempt quite unlike anything Brizé has tried before.

What are critics saying?
In this hard, unblinking film, even a moral victory feels like defeat.
The Hollywood Reporter by Jordan Mintzer
An engrossing depiction of severe occupational hazards, with most of the action set in drab, purely functional offices and conference rooms where Philippe has to contend with an impossible task.
It’s a lean drama that cuts no slack.
The Playlist by Marshall Shaffer
This meditation on the emotions that bind and the economy that separates is a worthy representation of the risky business of holding onto humanity in contemporary society.
