The film follows Amanda (Binoche) and her stepfather, Martin (Courtenay), at odds over a moral quandary involving Amanda's mother, Leslie (Calder-Marshall). In the advanced stages of dementia, they quarrel over whether Leslie has lost all ability to make critical decisions in her own best interests, and, if so, who is responsible – a spouse, a child, an institution – for making such a determination?
As Amanda and Martin are forced to make increasingly difficult choices, the repercussions spiral out of their control.
Shot on 35mm.
“Driven by fine performances from Tom Courtenay and Anna Calder-Marshall, Lance Hammer’s comeback is unbearable in its tragic candour and essential in its moral questioning” ★★★★★ – The Guardian
