Anatomy of a Fall review – electric Palme d’Or-winning courtroom thriller
A tantalising screenplay keeps the audience guessing in Justine Triet’s gripping French drama in which superb lead actor Sandra Hüller plays a woman suspected of her husband’s murder.
The story begins when Samuel is found dead in the snow outside the isolated chalet where he lived with his wife Sandra, a German writer, and their partially-sighted 11-year-old son Daniel. An investigation leads to a conclusion of "suspicious death": it's impossible to know for sure whether he took his own life or was killed. Sandra is indicted, and we follow her trial which pulls the couple's relationship apart. Daniel is caught in the middle: between the trial and their home life, doubts take their toll on the mother-son relationship.

The CFI has no membership criteria - just turn up and pay on the night. This is not a profit-making venture. We are aiming simply to cover the cost of the film hire (via Film Distributors FILMBANK, Momentum Pictures or BFI ), the hire of the Audio & Visual equipment (from Chorlton-based company Hollowsphere), the rental of the Church & the cost of the biscuits.
