Eden is a decades-spanning story of Paul (Félix de Givry), who comes up alongside Daft Punk in the dawning years of French house and reaches a modicum of fame, but keeps the party going even though his friends have embraced adulthood. Hansen-Løve is concerned as much with the comedown lows as with the pupil dilating highs, thus eschewing the tropes of the music movie for an easy, low-key naturalism that feels steeped in. The film serves as a sort of defining statement about the generation that refused to grow up.
