The lives of happily married couple Hélène and Mathieu are turned upside down by an unexpected life-changing diagnosis. The couple’s deep bond is further put to the test when Hélène suddenly decides to leave Bordeaux and travel alone to Norway in search of peace. Vicky Krieps and the late Gaspard Ulliel star in this moving story of a woman’s decision to take life back into her own hands.

Reviews

‘Ultimately, the key to a meaningful death is, the film argues, the same as in life: being true to yourself.’
★★★★
Wendy Ide, The Observer

‘An affecting reflection on the loneliness we will all have to face at our end, held together by Vicky Krieps’s poised display of unself-pitying despair and liberating acceptance.’
★★★★
