I'VE LOVED YOU SO LONG (2008)

PHILIPPE CLAUDEL

Plot

Juliette has spent the last fifteen years in prison for a shocking crime. Her way of coping with her imprisonment, and the chain of events leading to it, is to bottle up her emotions and distance herself from her fellow human beings. Upon her release, an emotionally damaged Juliette is taken in by her younger sister Lea, whose relentless and undemanding goodness slowly thaws Juliette's introverted stolidity, providing the older sister with some hope of release as she gradually begins to bare her tortured soul. 'I've Loved You So Long' allows two superb actresses to build their characters, forge their relationship and examine their grief.
