Michelle lives in a village, spending time with her best friend Marie-Claude. She enjoys hosting her grandson Lucas but is less thrilled by his mother, Valerie. After a lunch she prepares ends with Valerie hospitalized, the fragile family dynamic unravels. François Ozon, with his keen understanding of French family dynamics, crafts a film that starts as a melodrama and evolves into a gripping thriller. The stunning Burgundy landscapes, fading autumn colors, Helen Vincent’s brilliant performance, and a cleverly deceptive script enhance the emotional depth.
