Why we chose it

Trier, the director of “Sentimental Value”, takes his cue from Kieślowski here, with Jesse Eisenberg and Isabelle Huppert at his side. He watches closely as memories of a painful past shape the lives of his characters, and as ever he finds light in the deepest dark.

Synopsis

Three years after the death of the renowned war photographer Isabelle Reed, her husband and two sons find themselves under one roof again. A retrospective of her photographs is being prepared, with an article about her to follow, so her husband Gene and their elder son Jonah sit down to go through the archive. Conrad, the younger son, has never been told the truth.
