It's not so much a slice of life as it is a forceful chop, a violent confrontation that will turn off most people long before they can bridge any sort of divide. Go to Full Review Todd McCarthy Deadline Hollywood Daily Jul 19, 2021
It's not on the level of M*A*S*H or The Hospital, but The Divide (La Fracture) keeps you on your toes with its frenetic look at a besieged Paris emergency room hospital staff. Go to Full Review Ben Croll TheWrap Jul 13, 2021
Appraising her country's various ills with a healthy dose of Gallic gallows humor, [filmmaker Catherine Corsini] has delivered a kind of screwball comedy full of physical gags, rat-a-tat dialogue and intricate choreography. Go to Full Review William Stottor Loud and Clear Reviews Jul 18, 2024
3.5/5
The Divide is an intense snapshot of one night in a French A&E department on the night of a yellow vests protest, juggling political and societal themes. Go to Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Feb 13, 2023
4/5
It's so expertly written and assembled that it feels unnervingly real. Go to Full Review Beatriz Martínez Fotogramas Jul 29, 2022
4/5
The Divide drips with a sudden whip of frenetic satire through a handful of characters that are pushed to the limit, both patients and health workers alike. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews
