This movie is like peeling an onion, layer upon layer. It’s about the conflict that can occur between siblings on the death of their mother regarding the estate. Between sentimental attachment and the necessity of life. The older generation living with memories and the lack of attachment of the younger generation, and the heartlessness of the government wanting its estate tax that forces a life’s work down to money. There is NO violence, No swearing, just life. I finished watching this movie with a feeling of gentle sadness. The acting is fantastic. The move from each of the siblings life and needs just flows. It is in French with English subtitles, but I was so drawn into this movie that I didn’t even notice.

Great insight into past youth, mid age dependants and end of life situations within an extended family. Beautiful French film covering so many aspects of life applicable to today.
