Easter Eggs
The casting of Émilie Dequenne
Dequenne is a legend of Belgian cinema, having won the Best Actress award at Cannes for the Dardenne brothers' Rosetta (1999). Her presence is a tribute to the lineage of Belgian social realism that influenced Dhont.
The significance of the color Red
Dhont specifically chose the color red for Rémi’s room as a visual callback to his first film, Girl, but also as a way to create an 'iconic' and memorable sanctuary that feels both visceral and separate from the rest of the world.
