Three days in the life of Jeanne Dielman, woman and mother — this is the premise from which Chantal Akerman built her film, inspired by the experiences of her mother Natalia, exiled in Brussels after the Second World War. Brilliantly portrayed by actress, director and activist Delphine Seyrig, Jeanne Dielman reveals the daily routines, the silence, the work and the confinement necessary for the protagonist's survival. In 2022, it was considered the best film of all time in the Sight & Sound magazine's survey published every decade.
