The Love Of Cinema

When Autumn Falls with François Ozon | Picturehouse

Lucy Fenwick Elliott speaks to director François Ozon about his new film, When Autumn Falls, in cinemas now.

Loving grandmother Michelle is enjoying a peaceful retirement in a quiet Burgundy village, close to her best friend Marie-Claude. However, when her daughter Valérie drops off her grandson Lucas for their week together, everything begins to unravel.

As Michelle navigates the complexities of her strained relationship with Valérie, unexpected tensions arise—especially when Marie-Claude’s son, recently released from prison, enters the picture.

François Ozon's latest masterfully explores themes of youth and the challenges of ageing, placing two older women at the heart of the story. With an outstanding performance by Hélène Vincent, this richly textured film is both captivating and thought-provoking.
