The Truth

2019 · 106 min

A quiet, emotionally charged family reunion where old wounds surface through sharp dialogue and a film-within-a-film.

Overview: Fabienne is a star; a star of French cinema. She reigns amongst men who love and admire her. When she publishes her memoirs, her daughter Lumir returns from New York to Paris with her husband and young child. The reunion between mother and daughter will quickly turn to confrontation: truths will be told, accounts settled, loves and resentments confessed.

Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
