Batcombe Film Society

Date: Friday 24th January 2025

Time: 7 for 7.45pm

Venue: The Jubilee Hall, Batcombe 

The January film is Anatomy of a Fall (2023/152 mins/15), the Palme d’Or winning film about a German-born writer, Sandra, whose husband is found dead in mysterious circumstances below their isolated chalet in the French Alps.  Investigations are unable to determine whether Samuel took his own life or was pushed but Sandra becomes the prime suspect and we follow her trial which pulls the couple's complex relationship apart.  With conflicting evidence and testimony, the courtroom scenes are intense and emotionally charged and caught in the middle of events is Daniel, the couple’s visually impaired 11 year old son. A gripping psychological drama with a tremendous performance from Sandra Hüller as Sandra.  French and German with subtitles plus English.
