How do we take responsibility for our past mistakes? In a thriller style, the director shows the daily life of a stepfamily, where everyone’s secrets and the complex relationships gradually disentangle. A dense, deep and engaging film that illustrates this verse : "The truth will make you free" (John, 8:32).

Un Certain Regard
Honey
Directed by:
2013
The film offers a complex and unprejudiced view on the issue of euthanasia. The filmmaker shares with discretion and mastery the doubts and the torments of a Young woman who helps terminally ill people to die, leaving to the audience the freedom and the responsibility to take a stand.
