Trenton IFF Suzanne
Suzanne
France, 2013, 94 min. In French with English subtitles.
Built around an extraordinary performance by fearless actress Sara Forestier, SUZANNE is a tough-minded, unsentimental character study of a troubled young woman. The daughters of a widowed truck driver (François Damiens) who is deeply devoted to them both, Suzanne and her younger sister Maria (Adèle Haenel) enjoy a relatively idyllic childhood. While Maria develops into a mature and stable young woman, however, Suzanne grows increasingly impetuous, her actions and choices straining her family to the breaking point. Neither sentimentalizing nor judging Suzanne, filmmaker Katell Quillévéré narrates her story with enormous grace and sensitivity, depicting her as a woman who is deeply flawed but possessed by an irrepressible life-force.
