Thierry Chèze:
-" Fabienne We were impressed with Berthaud Frankie, his first feature film shot in the snatch with a number of years, headlined by a then almost debutante Diane Kruger. Found in Barefoot on slugs what makes the strength of his movie: its raw, no frills or unnecessary frills. His ability to imagine characters as unconventional as they may believe that Lily lingered at first sight and that will reveal to her sister that was built in the opposite extreme, while in control of herself, to not be an extra burden for his family.
The relationship between these two sisters function as communicating vessels, their reunion causing collateral damage to the worst and powerful for the best in the life of Clara, is one of the highlights of this film. "

Lily - Diane Kruger barefoot on slugs (DR). Olivier Seguret:
- "His eldest Clara will look after the immature, disturbed the Lily, in the vast and beautiful homestead, both isolated in a perfect little corner of nature - and say outset that what works best in this film owes much to the validity and realism disturbing the natural tenderness of the pair of sisters that are Ludivine Sagnier and Diane Kruger (...).
This is not the style that prevails in Barefoot ... but energy, a certain lightness, the way the film is balanced between depth and frivolity, beating himself the campaign along with Lily (...).
film by Fabienne Berthaud, sometimes poetic watched by overweight, emerges as a truly universal appeal, because he wants to, and successful, evidence of a deranged and dangerous humanity ... but smiling, sensual and adhesive. "
