Synopsis
French writer and Nobel Prize awardee Annie Ernaux opens a treasure trove with a journey into her family’s memory. Compiled from home movies between 1972 to 1981, it’s an account of family life, which ultimately becomes a record of a marriage in decline, as well as the blossoming of her career.
Editorial
Super 8 home movies are the flickering surface for Annie Ernaux’s reflections on the past in this poignant film, made together with her son. Personal and political revolutions flare across a cinematic memoir as beautiful as the bare and bruising prose for which the Nobel Prize winner is renowned.
