Love Letters

Love Letters follows Céline, a woman who is about to become a mother through her partner Nadia, even though Céline herself isn’t carrying the child. Over the coming months Nadia will give birth to their daughter, and their same sex marriage becomes the center of a quiet, candid drama. As friends weigh in, her mother weighs in, and the legal realities of parenthood rise to the surface, Céline searches for a stable place in a world built on conventional rules. The film tracks how she defines her own legitimacy, navigating certainty and doubt, love and duty, with humor softening a sometimes tense social scrutiny.

Released in 2025, this film is directed by Alice Douard and is presented from an original screenplay. The cast includes Ella Rumpf as Céline and Monia Chokri as Nadia, with Noémie Lvovsky and Félix Kysyl in supporting roles.

Early responses praise its thoughtful balance of humor and tenderness, treating a non traditional family with care. Rumpf gives Céline a quiet, steady center, and Chokri reveals Nadia’s warmth and resilience. The film probes legitimacy, love, and belonging in a world still shaped by biology, a tone reflected in its modest but growing reception, with a 7.9/10 from 26 votes.
