Anatomy of a Fall

Directed by Justine Triet, FR, 2023, 150 min., French with Czech subtitles

Successful writer Sandra lives with her husband Samuel and their eleven-year-old blind son in a remote chalet in the French Alps. One day Samuel is found dead. Was it a suicide, an unfortunate accident or is Sandra herself – with her stubborn nature that makes her the prime suspect – the one responsible for her husband’s death? A public investigation of the case reveals not only the circumstances of the death itself, but also the intimate and disturbing details of the tumultuous marriage.

Justine Triet filmed an exciting family drama awarded the Palme d’Or at the IFF in Cannes.
