Heartbeats is a romantic drama that explores the lives, loves and passions of three friends entangled in a triangulated love affair. Deceit versus honesty and self-preservation undermines ethics in this moving tale of love in the fast lane where the three main characters posture to preserve their love interests without hurting each other. That’s not as easy as it sounds, and Heartbeats take you on a journey of inner motivations and the power struggle for affection is this complicated script that bares and tells all. Anyone who has been in love may relate to the heart ache and adversity of the sensitive characters and their uncanny ordeal. Heartbeats is a French language film and was beautifully shot in Canada around Quebec and Montreal. Written and directed by Xavier Dolan, Heartbeats makes a great date night movie and a unique cinematic choice to sample a foreign film.
