Independent Cinema for Everyone

When a teenage surfer is killed in a car accident, his grieving parents have to make the difficult decision to donate his organs to those in need. The film has two halves: firstly focusing on the family’s emotional shock and ethical dilemmas before introducing us to the woman who is set to receive the boy’s heart, waiting to see whether she will be given a new chance of life. Adapted from an acclaimed novel, this powerfully humane film reflects the way a compassionate health system works and shows how our flesh-and-blood make-up ultimately connects us all.

Dir. Katell Quillevere, France/Belgium, 2016, 103 mins, subtitled.
Cast. Tahar Rahim, Emmanuelle Seigner, Anne Dorval.
