LE POIDS DE L'HERITAGE

Inheritance: an institution to which the French are particularly attached. This rite of passage touches some of society's greatest taboos: relationships, money, death. Alexandra Riguet meets four families who recount that delicate moment when an estate has to be settled, the disagreements that often hide deep emotional wounds. Interwoven portraits.

Directed by: Alexandra Riguet (France, 2017)
