Juliette (Kristin Scott Thomas) is released from prison after a fifteen year sentence for killing her son. She moves in with her sister (played beautifully by Elsa Zylberstein) and they attempt to rebuild their relationship as Juliette tries to rebuild her life, a process made difficult by the stigma of her past. Scott Thomas and Zylberstein both give Oscar caliber performances in a film that never attempts to make the story of Juliet's past the focal point, but instead focuses on the present.
