Award Winning Independent Cinema

A deserving winner Cannes Film Festival, this taut chamber piece follows terminally ill writer Louis (Ulliel), who returns home to break the news of his condition to his estranged family. Once there, old wounds and deep seated frustrations surface as he struggles to rekindle relationships and articulate the real reason for his unexpected visit. Shot almost entirely in uncomfortable, claustrophobic close-ups, there is an aching sadness that permeates every scene.
