Sarah's Key

It is 2009 and an American journalist in Paris is researching an article about the deportation of Jews from France in 1942 when she realises that one of the deported families lived in the apartment of her French husband's family into which she and the husband are about to move.
The journalist, Kristin Scott Thomas, embarks on a search for what happened to the members of that Jewish family which takes her back to the USA and to Italy. Like 'Blue Valentine', 'Sarah's Key' is a mix of present day and flashbacks.

This sad tale of love, relations and sacrifice is nicely acted.
