The actors: Daniel Auteuil, Emmanuelle Devos, Salomé Dewaels...
A lawyer who has been defending the victims of a murder trial in court for years - and was once guilty himself. His wife and son, who suffer from the suppression of the family secret. And a sensationalist public that supports the media's questionable practices. These are the ingredients (in terms of content) that make up the family drama "A Silence".
Astrid, the wife of a respected lawyer, has remained silent for 25 years. When her children begin to ask questions, a dark secret from the past is revealed. The facade of the lawyer and the entire family crumbles.
"The film is primarily about the idea of expressing one's opinion, which is much talked about. With Un silence, I want to show why silence is still so powerful and why it is so difficult to speak your mind." Joachim Lafosse
