La Mère de tous les mensonges

The filmmaker realizes one day that there is only one photo of her as a child, and it doesn't even look like her. Faced with silence and wanting to understand the mysteries surrounding her childhood, she and her father recreate a large-scale model of her neighbourhood by hand, and invite family and friends to sort out their stories using puppets representing them.
In a surreal atmosphere, she persuades everyone to confide, little by little, in order to find the painful starting point of many secrets and omissions.

A personal and historical quest, unique and moving.
