FAMILY FRAGMENTS reconstructs the memories of a divorced family with empathy yet merciless precision. An intimate family story emerges during the investigation into the reasons for the separation. Hinging on the subtle and touching monologues of the family members, the film delves into their often complex interrelationships. Actors bring the family's memories alive. They tell the story of the separation as if it were their own: a film within the film. The result is a chronicle of a family drama, which the real protagonists complement and comment on.
