TRUTH

The publication of her mother Fabienne’s gossipy memoirs, brings estranged daughter Lumir (Juliette Binoche) and husband (Ethan Hawke), back to Paris to join the celebration.

To make matters worse, iconic actress Fabienne (superbly-acted by Catherine Deneuve), is simultaneously filming a science-fiction movie playing the aging daughter of an eternally-young mother (could “reality meeting fiction” lead to a mother-daughter reconciliation?)
First-time (outside Japan) director Hirokazu Kore-Eda, gathers a dream cast in a powerful, emotional drama of family conflict, filled with clever dialogue. Don’t miss this one !
