Synopsis:
Incest, old money, and intergenerational guilt come under the scalpel in this brooding story of lies, power, and the power of lies. Anne Charpin-Vasseur (Nathalie Baye), matriarch of an outwardly perfect upper-class family in Bordeaux decides to run for Mayor. But in the midst of her campaign a leaflet appears, accusing her family of collaboration with the Nazis, profiteering, adultery, and more. One by one skeletons begin to emerge from the closet, sowing discord and distrust as the family begins to unravel.
