Along Came Love (French: Le Temps d’aimer) is a 2023 French drama co-written and directed by Katell Quillévéré. Loosely inspired by the life of her grandmother, the film delicately explores love, shame, and survival in the aftermath of war.
Starring Anaïs Demoustier and Vincent Lacoste, the story follows a French woman publicly branded a Nazi collaborator after an affair with a German soldier. As France rebuilds itself after World War II, she must navigate the weight of public humiliation while seeking dignity, resilience, and perhaps, redemption.
The film had its world premiere at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival in the Cannes Première section on 20 May 2023, where it was nominated for the Queer Palm. It was released theatrically in France on 29 November 2023 by Gaumont.
With emotional nuance and historical depth, Along Came Love reflects on the complexities of desire and identity in a fractured society — a moving portrait of post-war France and the personal costs of collective judgment.
