Je Verrai Toujours Vos Visages
Hopeful French drama about victims of violent crime engaging in conversation with perpetrators, accompanied by professional counsellors. Was a box office hit in France.
Please note that this film is in French, with Dutch subtitles.
Restorative justice programs offer a safe space for dialogue between offenders and victims – supported by professionals and volunteers. Among the participants are Chloé, a victim of sexual assault and Grégoire, Nawelle, and Sabine, victims of burglary and snatching. Nassim, Issa, and Thomas are offenders, convicted of violent robberies. In this emotional and difficult journey, they must overcome resentment to find solace and forgiveness. And perhaps, at the end of the road, some of them might even find healing.
Jeanne Herry, France, 2023, 119 min. French spoken, Dutch subtitles.
With Adèle Exarchopoulos, Gilles Lellouche, Leila Bekthi, Miou-Miou, Jean-Pierre Darroussin..
