Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Olivier Assayas, this intimate family drama explores the weight of memory and legacy when three adult siblings reunite at their mother's idyllic country home in France. Following the death of their beloved matriarch, played with quiet grace by Edith Scob, the siblings—played by Juliette Binoche, Charles Berling, and Jeremie Renier—must confront the difficult decision of what to do with the house and its cherished collection of art and heirlooms. Each sibling brings a different perspective: one is a pragmatic businessman living in China, another is a successful designer based in New York, and the third is a free-spirited artist still rooted in Paris. Their conflicting attachments to the past and practical considerations for the future create a tender, bittersweet conflict that resonates with anyone who has faced the transition of letting go. With a contemplative tone and subtle emotional depth, Summer Hours is a beautifully crafted meditation on family, change, and the objects that hold our memories.
