grim analysis of marital relationship details to restore real life

Under a peaceful marriage life, contradictions have long taken root in the dark. The husband strangely fell to his death and fell in the snow, leaving the unsolved riddle to his wife and children in shock. However, due to previous rumors of discord, the wife became the biggest suspect in the case; the blind son was also implicated in his parents' marital entanglements and became the only witness in the case. How will the innocent child face the death of his father and the harsh trial faced by his mother? where should he go in the heavy pressure of life and the fetters of family affection?

The police intervened and the wife was investigated and went to court to prove her innocence. However, in the long interrogation, under a series of sharp cross-examination, many dusty marital past events in the depths of memory have become the key information for solving mysteries. the long-term lack of communication between husband and wife, different lifestyles and personality differences have become the trigger for the outbreak of contradictions, and the long-accumulated emotions and dissatisfaction point to an irreparable tragic outcome. "No one's life can withstand such a trial." Director Justine Trier buries the truth of intimacy in the details of the film, leading the audience to the depths of marriage and re-examining the meaning of marriage and family.

A small incision reveals the big truth and goes deep into the emotional world of women

In marriage, society often acquiesces that women play the role of "good wife and mother". In the film, Sandra Wheeler plays a female writer who not only has a successful career and is seen by outsiders as a congenial couple, but also has a strong and calm character. However, under the hammer of the judge's trial, her composure became evidence of her ruthless treatment of her husband, and she was bound by morality and ethics. As a female director, the narrative of the film is carried out from the perspective of the female master, showing what has been covered up in the marriage relationship between the man and the woman for a long time before the murder. In the process of exploring the truth and recalling the past, she realized the cruel truth in her marriage and the inevitable deep defects in human nature. Unequal emotional relationships, years of hidden pain and resentment have become the last straw to crush the couple and will resonate with the audience in front of the screen.
