Queen at Sea

Amanda (Juliette Binoche) and her stepfather Martin (Tom Courtenay) struggle with a moral issue that divides them. Has Amanda’s mother Leslie (Anna Calder-Marshall) who is suffering from advanced dementia, lost the ability to make critical decisions in her own best interests? And, if so, who is responsible – a spouse, a child, an institution – for making such a determination? As Amanda and Martin are forced to make increasingly difficult choices, the repercussions spiral out of their control.

Winner of Berlinale’s Silver Bear Jury Prize and the Silver Bear for Best Supporting Performance for Courtenay and Calder-Marshall.
