Country: Belgium
Director: Luc Dardenne & Jean-Pierre Dardenne
Cast: Marion Cotillard, Fabrizio Rongione, Catherine Salée & Olivier Gourmet.
Sandra works in a factory and she was forced to take some days off due to a nervous breakdown. When she returns to the factory, the company puts forward a proposition for remaining employees of Sandra's redundancy or a 1000 euro bonus for each employee.
It was selected as the Belgium submission for the Oscar foreign category and Cotillard also received the nomination for Best actress. Like any other movie of Dardennes', this film also follows the naturalistic way of story presentation with an unexpected climax. A superb performance by Cotillard as Sandra is the main attraction of the plot and the struggle of a working woman was nicely shown by her. The only defect about the plot is Sandra's background information was missing and we can only judge her through the conversations. Overall, it's an intense movie and a thought provoking one that actually motivates you in one way or another.
Verdict: Good
