ANATOMY OF A FALL

Did he jump or was he pushed? That’s for a court of law to decide after a family father is found dead underneath the window of his chalet. But Justine Triet’s Cannes winner is far more than a courtroom thriller. Starring an outstanding Sandra Hüller, the film presents both the anatomy of a marriage and a writer’s portrait. What comes to light is that people and their relationships can never be really understood from the outside. The stories we tell about ourselves are always fraught with blind spots and contradictions.
