Top 100 Most Anticipated Foreign Films of 2022: #45. Justine Triet’s Anatomie d’une chute

Date:

Anatomie d’une chute

Unless they pass up on the fall festival circuit and wait until ’23, Justine Triet is not going to make it four for four on the Croisette. With production set to begin in March and pending casting announcements to likely be made during Berlin Intl. Film Festival, Anatomie d’une chute (which translates to Anatomy of a fall) was co-written by her hubby Arthur Harari (who opened the Un Certain Regard section in Cannes last year with Onoda: 10,000 Nights in the Jungle) who contributed to all of Triet’s films to date. Produced by Les Films Pelleas’ David Thion and Marie-Ange Luciani’s Les Films de Pierre, this delves into the mother and child rapport. Triet’s Age of Panic premiered in ACID lineup, her sophomore feature Victoria opened the Cannes Critics’ Week, and her last feature Sibyl premiered in comp in Cannes in 2019.

Gist: This is a procedural drama revolving around a woman who being investigated for the murder of her husband who was found dead. During the investigation, the detective first suspect an accident or a suicide and eventually believe it’s a murder. The key witness in the case turns out to be the couple’s blind son, who faces a moral dilemma.

Release Date/Prediction: Venice Film Festival competition slot is possible and so is TIFF’s Platform section.
