My wife died of cancer and I lived through a situation in some ways very similar to that depicted in this extraordinary film . I can vouch for its truth. As a work of art it captures the awful complexity of the reactions of those near a person suffering from serious illness, and the way they become a sort of appendage of the technology which may, or may not, save them. The perfomances are excellent. It enlarges one's perception of the world and people, and one cannot ask more of a film than that.
Review of Haut les coeurs!
