Care as Conversation: Hamaguchi’s All of a Sudden at Cannes
TL;DR
Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s All of a Sudden (Soudain) is a patient, dialogue-driven meditation set in a Paris elder-care home that asks whether care and human dignity can endure under the pressures of aging populations and late‑stage capitalism; anchored by Virginie Efira and Tao Okamoto, the film rewards patience with a humane exploration of friendship, mortality, and the small acts that sustain life.
