Synopsis
Australian Premiere
On Ira
At 80 years old and suffering from an incurable cancer, Marie (Hélène Vincent, When Fall Is Coming, AF FFF25) is exhausted by pain and determined to leave life on her own terms. Her decision is clear: she plans to travel to Switzerland, where assisted suicide is legal, and end her life with dignity. When the time comes to tell her family, however, Marie panics.
Faced with Bruno (David Ayala, The Big Hit, AF FFF21), her immature and unreliable son, and Anna (Juliette Gasquet), her teenage granddaughter navigating her own turmoil, she invents an elaborate lie. To spare them worry, she announces a family trip to Switzerland, supposedly to collect a mysterious inheritance from a Swiss bank.
Accompanied by Rudy (Pierre Lottin, My Brother’s Band, AF FFF25), a caregiver she has only just met and who reluctantly becomes their driver, Marie and her family set off in an old camper van on an unexpected road trip. As the kilometres pass, will Marie find the courage to reveal her true intention before it is too late?
Awarded at the Alpe d’Huez Comedy Film Festival for the performances of Hélène Vincent and Juliette Gasquet, BON VOYAGE MARIE, directed by Enya Baroux, is a tender and lucid family dramedy that approaches end-of-life choices with humour and deep humanity. Not to be missed!
