Synopsis Thirty-year-old Stéphane is a brilliant, ambitious biochemist with a fantastic career. He’s got a great girlfriend and his future looks bright. When he’s called to his dying grandmother’s bedside, he goes – but more out of duty than love. Hence he finds himself back in Alsace where he was born, tending to the woman known as “Muetter.”br>
A cousin, with whom he was once close, and a caring, devoted neighbor have settled in the family home. As Stéphane wanders through the village of his childhood, memories slowly rise to the surface and lead him towards an unexpected denouement. Festival selections |
