La lune viendra d'elle-même --
Film Description:
"Stricken with AIDS, Aimée leaves the hospital after yet another stay. Her friend Francine drives her to the Maison Bleue hospice for a period of convalescence. Aimée's health fails to improve, however: she becomes delusional and is forced to live out the rest of her days at the Maison Bleue. Aimée's slow and agonizing demise reveals or reawakens a variety of suppressed feelings in Francine, some more painful than others: past mourning, solitude, the fact of being in her fifties, exhaustion... Confronted on all sides by these emotions, Francine alternates between rage, denial and sadness. Eventually, she comes to term with the fact of suffering and begins to accept the impermanence of both people and things. As she accompanies Aimée in her illness, Francine finds hope in the face of death and experiences a new confidence in life."
