Documentaire remuant sur l'inceste subi par Christine Angot
Christine Angot
On.ressent la rage de christine angot face à sa belle mère bourgeoise qui ne veut rien savoir, son émotion avec sa fille, sa solitude aussi. Éprouvant par moments.
Film de Christine Angot. Vu au Royal Palace à Nogent avec Martine. Femme à fleur de peau. Beaucoup de colère. Scène avec sa fille très touchante, l’une des seules à lui avoir dit qu’elle était désolée de ce qui lui était arrivé.

Christine Angot's directorial debut, 'A Family', has stirred a spectrum of emotions among viewers, with many praising its raw and poignant exploration of incest and familial denial. Critics commend Angot's use of cinema to confront and articulate her personal trauma, finding the film both disturbing and necessary. However, some viewers find Angot's approach overly narcissistic and repetitive, feeling that her persistent focus on her personal story overshadows broader discussions.
👍 Powerful confrontation of personal and familial trauma.
👎 May feel overly personal and repetitive to some.
