In this thriller nothing is black and white. The Anatomy of a Fall, winner of the Palme d’Or, four Golden Globes, and a slew of awards at the European Film Awards, glues you to your seat, delights with its complexity, and leaves you pondering long after the movie night is over.
The film, directed by French auteur Justine Triet, opens with the family’s husband found dead in the snow in the yard. The police begin to investigate whether he fell or was pushed. The trial becomes a psychological exploration of the conflicting marriage, which, as it intensifies, becomes colder and colder.

“Ultimately, one of the key pleasures of the picture is its uncertainty – the niggling doubts that remain, and the sense that a crucial piece of the puzzle is tantalisingly out of reach.”
