Anatomie d'une chute (2023)
Cet obscur voile du langage
« Le langage est source de malentendus. » ["Language is the source of misunderstandings."]-Antoine de Saint Exupéry, Le Petit Prince (1943)
Anatomie d'une chute is a captivating film that delves into the complexities of language and truth. Set in France, the film revolves around the enigmatic death of Samuel and the ensuing trial of his German wife, Sandra.
The trial, conducted in French, presents a unique challenge for Sandra, who often struggles with the language and resorts to English to express herself. This language barrier not only underscores the difficulties of communication but also serves as a metaphor for the distortion of truth.
The film poignantly portrays the strain this tragedy puts on Sandra's relationship with their son, Daniel, and the impact of language barriers on their lives. "Everything you hear in the trial it's just... it's twisted," she says to Daniel, which encapsulates the film's exploration of how language can shape our perception of reality.
