THE ASSESSMENT

alt

Fleur Fortuné is a French director and visual artist renowned for her evocative and cinematic storytelling. She has carved a niche for herself in the realms of music videos, commercials, and short films, blending surreal and often dreamlike imagery with compelling narratives. 

Driven by a profound desire to extend her unique creative universe into more expansive and emotionally charged narratives, Fleur just completed her first movie, « The Assessment », a sci-fi psychological thriller that has captivated audiences and critics alike, for its compelling storytelling, amazing performances, and powerful visuals, the film has set a strong foundation for Fleur’s burgeoning career as a filmmaker. With its ability to delve into complex themes and evoke profound emotional responses, « The Assessment » serves as a testament to Fleur’s storytelling prowess and her ability to craft cinematic experiences that are both intellectually engaging and deeply moving.

In THE ASSESSMENT, the desire to have children is subject to a strict approval process. Couples must undergo an examination to prove their suitability as parents. Mia and Aaryan prepare for this exam, conducted by the aloof assessor Virginia. Over the course of seven days, Virginia subjects her to a series of psychologically and physically stressful challenges that shake her relationship and her faith in the system.
