On the French Polynesian island of Tahiti, the High Commissioner of the Republic and French government official De Roller is a calculating man with flawless manners. His somewhat broad perception of his role brings him to navigate the high end "establishment" as well as shady venues where he mingles with the locals. Especially since a persistent rumour has been going around: the sighting of a submarine whose ghostly presence could herald the return of French nuclear testing. (Cannes Film Festival)

With its original story and characters, Pacification is an alternative, interestingly atmospheric “quiet drama” in the attractive tropical setting of the rainy Tahitian islands. Only the filmmaker’s need to make political statements can come across as annoying. And the slow pace of the nearly three-hour plot with occasionally insipid dialogue can be yawn-inducing. This casualness, however, reflects the lifestyle of the characters and complements the film's unique island nature. The surprising scenes with mega-wave surfing and great sound are nicely refreshing.
