(Je verrai toujours vos visages)
Country: FR
Technical: col/2.39:1 118m
Director: Jeanne Herry
Cast: Adèle Exarchopoulos, Élodie Bouchez, Miou-Miou, Gilles Lellouche, Jean-Pierre Darroussin, Leïla Bekhti, Dali Benssalah, Raphaël Quenard
Synopsis:
Restorative justice involves victims and perpetrators meeting with specially trained probation officers and volunteers to talk through their experiences, in order to act as a brake on recidivism and provide closure. The film charts both a group process using generic offences and a supervised face to face between rape victim and attacker.
Review:
An enlightened initiative on the part of the French penal system leads to a finely acted, deftly written scenario in which the camera scans the protagonists at medium close-up for much of the time, avoiding histrionics while probing their vulnerability.
