What C'est la vie Is About
Dimitri arrives at La Maison, a place that takes in people for whom medicine has nothing left to offer. There he meets Suzanne, a volunteer who has given herself to the dying since her own husband’s death. Jean-Pierre Améris refuses to turn this into an illness melodrama; he watches what a man at the end and the woman beside him actually give each other, and he manages to stay calm all the way to the last scene. The screenplay is adapted from La Mort intime, Marie de Hennezel’s account of her own work in palliative care. Améris won the Silver Shell for best director at San Sebastián, and Dutronc was named best actor at Marrakech.
