Film Screening: Anatomy of a Fall

Film flyer: Anatomy of a Fall

Based on interest from students, the World Languages and Cultures Department has teamed up with the Women’s Center to host a screening of Anatomy of a Fall, an award winning film by French film director Justine Triet. 

Anatomy of a Fall is a gripping legal drama that centers on a couple’s tumultuous relationship and whether a husband’s death was an accident or an act murder at the hands of his wife.  The German actress Sandra Hüller takes center stage in the film as the accused wife trying to prove her innocence.

The film has earned international acclaim, winning the Cannes Film Festival’s highest honor, the Palme d’Or in 2023, the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, as well as Golden Globes for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Screenplay.  With the 2023 Palme d’Or win, Justine Triet became just the third female director to win the award. 

Following the screening, Dr. Michèle Bacholle will lead a discussion.  All are welcome.
