The Truth

Legends of French cinema Catherine Deneuve and Juliette Binoche join masterful filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda (Shoplifters, Still Walking) to paint a moving portrait of family dynamics in The Truth. Fabienne (Deneuve) is an aging French movie star who, despite her momentary lapses in memory, remains a venerable force to be reckoned with. Upon the publication of her memoir, her daughter Lumir (Binoche) returns to Paris from New York with her husband (Ethan Hawke) and their young daughter to commemorate its release. A sharp and funny battle of wits ensues between the mother-daughter duo, as Lumir takes issue with Fabienne’s rose-colored version of the past. Charming, bold, and imbued with endless emotional insight, The Truth offers a relatable look at human relationships, featuring exquisite performances from its all-star cast.

"A warm and moving family portrait with the kind of sensitivity and emotional intelligence only a master storyteller can bring to the table."
David Ehrlich, Indiewire
"A charming love letter to Deneuve and an affectionate ode to French cinema itself."
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
