FRA 2023. dir: Justine Triet. D: Sandra Hüller, Swann Artaud, Milo Machado Graner, Antoine Reinartz. 151 min. frzOmdtU. FSK: 12
Sandra, a German writer, lives with her French husband Samuel and their son Daniel in a remote chalet in the French Alps. Then Samuel is found dead. An accident? Suicide? Murder? The circumstances seem suspicious to the police, Sandra is questioned and charged, and a grueling circumstantial trial begins. Prosecution and justice probe into the private, contradictory, complex web of relationships between the couple - Sandra Hüller brings out all facets of her character with nuance. Winner of the Palme d'Or - only the third time for a film directed by a woman.
