About
"(...) All the above are necessary ingredients contributing to great films but that is not enough to explain the depth of the cinematic mystery that one can feel in "Ni d'Eve ni d'Adam". There must be something else, undoubtedly defying explanation : a grace, a strong vision that addresses us all. A great moment of cinema." (Olivier Séguret - Libération)
