The Thorn In The Heart

"Michel Gondry's (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Be Kind Rewind) latest and most personal film, The Thorn in the Heart, further propels his filmography into the realm of the unvisited with a personal look at the life of his aunt Suzette Gondry and her relationship with her son Jean-Yves.

"Michel examines Suzette's years as a school teacher and her life in rural France. During the course of filming the documentary, hidden family stories unravel and Michel uses his camera to explore them in a subtle and sensitive way." (French Film Festival 2011)
