Rating: NC16

For the past year, Sandra, a German writer, her French husband Samuel, and their eleven-year-old son Daniel have lived a secluded life in a remote town in the French Alps. When Samuel is found dead in the snow below their chalet, the police question whether he committed suicide or was killed. Samuel's death is treated as suspicious, presumed murder, and Sandra becomes the main suspect. Little by little the trial becomes not just an investigation of the circumstances of Samuel's death, but an unsettling psychological journey into the depths of Sandra and Samuel's conflicted relationship. 

Winner of the Best Screenplay Award at the Oscars 2024, as well as the Palmé d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival 2023, Anatomy of a Fall is one of the most critically-acclaimed French breakout films in the last decade. A precise and meticulous wintry whodunnit, anchored by stellar performances by Sandra Hüller (Toni Erdmann), Swann Arlaud (Valiant Hearts), Milo Machado-Graner and Messi the dog (who won the Palm Dog Award at Cannes Film Festival 2023), Anatomy of a Fall is not to be missed. Director Justine Triet: “My intention was to create a film that portrays the downfall of a couple's relationship. The concept was to depict the physical and emotional descent of a body in a technical manner, symbolizing the decline of their love story.”
