THE YEAR AFTER
L'année suivante

Writer-director Isabelle Czajka's impressive and powerfully moving drama explores the impact of the loss of a parent in a teenager's life.

Seventeen-year-old Manu (sensational new talent Anais Demoustier) is unable to connect with her mother (Ariane Ascaride), or get in touch with her own grief after the death of her father (Bernard Le Coq). Indeed, her mother seems eager to move on, and even starts dating again, but Manu's life is on auto-pilot.

Demoustier delivers a striking performance as a teenager of few words whose stoic exterior hides a shattered interior of grief and loneliness, and who must decide how to move forward in her life. This haunting, intelligent and understated film is a small jewel, marking a major discovery in star and director.
