With Catherine Deneuve, Jean-Paul Roussillon, Anne Consigny, Mathieu Amalric, Emmanuelle Devos and Chiara Mastroianni...
"The Vuillard family gathers: Junon and Abel, a daughter Elizabeth and her son Paul, Henri and a girlfriend, Ivan, his wife Sylvia and their young sons, and cousin Simon. Six years before, Elizabeth paid Henri's debts and demanded he never see her again or visit their parents' home. Paul, at 16, has mental problems and faces a clinical exam. Junon learns she needs a bone marrow transplant. Two family members have compatible marrow, but the spats, fights, cruel words, drunken toasts, and somewhat civilized bad behavior threaten all; plus Junon may simply refuse treatment." IMBD
It is a strong movie. It is tough, words are used in an violent way, hurting and hurting more, from a history that no-one can let go, face or change. It is drama, with a dark humor that makes you feel a little better from time to time. But the intimacy of the members of the family is unique and precious. It is a beautiful movie.
