Le souffle court

movie

Directed by Pauline Beugnies

In March 2020, a Brussels collective of directors began discussions on Skype with eight front-line caregivers, mobilized in the face of the Covid pandemic. As the months go by, speech becomes freer. Weakened, these workers share their commitment, their suffering, their fight. The more the wear and tear is felt, the more the film highlights a failing care system.
