French drama following three siblings as they gather at their father's house to prepare for his death.
Melancholic and heartfelt yet flawed family drama from French director Robert Guédiguian.
Challenging the truism that you can never go home, this doesn't entirely integrate its political subtext. But the storylines are involving, the setting is picturesque and the performances are impeccable.
Robert Guédiguian's layered, nuanced family drama breaks no new ground, but its familiarity is part of its appeal.
A languorous look at family and modernity that only just manages to give each their due.
Siblings reunite and re-evaluate their lives and relationships in this self-regarding variation on a theme.
Veteran French director Robert Guédiguian achieves moments of beauty in an occasionally heavy-handed film.
