A wonderful story about the strength of women, their ability to reinvent themselves and to come alive again. After 15 years in prison, Juliette moves in with Lea, her younger sister whom she hardly knows. Gradually, the two women learn to overcome the secrets and the things left unsaid that so brutally tore them apart. With the help of Lea, her family and friends, Juliette starts the process of reconciliation and forgiveness. This features a host of superb performances - particularly from Scott Thomas.
Winner of 2 Awards at Berlin International Film Festival 2008
