1987. Noted stage director
Patrice Chereau adds his stylistic flair to this drama loosely taken from a story in the
Platonov Chronicles by Anton Chekhov. A French family is shown as they go through the
daily routines of life. Arguing, feasting, crying, and yearning for love are just some of
the human emotions encountered. The mood wavers between excessive noise to silence while
those not participating in the conversations listen in.
