Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of the curious and history buffs. Expect to bring it up in conversation afterwards. If you loved Night and Fog or Shoah, start here.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Moves through the story clearly, at 1 hr 24 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

A docudrama on the closing of the town of Schefferville. When Raoul loses his job at the mine because the operations are ending, he's been settled there for ten years with Carmen and their son. They're now forced to leave the town, leaving behind the traces of an ephemeral prosperity.
