  • Summary: Agathe Villanova is a self-centered, workaholic feminist politician who, upon reluctantly returning to her home in the south of France to sort out her mother’s affairs, runs for an local election. Upon her arrival, Agathe grudgingly agrees to take part in a documentary being made by the blundering duo of Karim an aspiring filmmaker, and self-professed "reporter" Michel, on the subject of “successful women." As Agathe's life hilariously unravels, the camera is there to capture it all. (IFC Film)… Expand

    Let It Rain touches on class issues, feminism, immigration and the particular challenges facing a single, driven career woman in her 40s. But it's graceful in presenting its ideas, and what emerges is not a polemic but a kind of snapshot of modern-day concerns.

    Jaoui neatly, gently, firmly slips political commentary into Let It Rain's articulate mayhem.

    While her focus has drifted away from the upper middle class, Jaoui's sensibility remains rather middlebrow; there's the distinct feeling that she's preaching solely, albeit with impressive subtlety, to the same bourgie choir as before.
