Semi-biographical music drama set during the rise of a brand of 1990s electronica – labelled ‘French touch’ – that rolled out the carpet for future trend-setters like Daft Punk and Cassius.

Directed by Mia Hansen-Løve (Father of My Children).

"Zeroes in on the signature experiences of '90s club life with expert precision."
Variety"Paul describes his music as “somewhere between euphoria and melancholy,” which is also an apt description of Eden itself."
Time Out"Restrained but never tentative, remote yet enormously affecting..."
The New York Times"Glamour is twinned with mundanity, beauty with boorishness and friendship with selfishness, while artistic endeavour is undercut by self-indulgence."
The Guardian"What Hansen-Løve accomplishes with Eden is trickier, a feeling of being adrift in a scene where people are already invited to lose themselves to dance."
The Dissolve"This graceful, deeply affecting movie has a soulfulness and sweep that mark it as a step forward for Hansen-Løve."
