Short description

All Your Faces follows a restorative justice programme in France, in which people convicted of violent robbery meet their victims face to face under professional supervision. Three offenders, Nassim, Issa and Thomas, sit down with Grégoire, Nawelle and Sabine, who have lived through home invasions and street robberies. In a separate strand, Chloé, who was sexually abused as a child, learns that the man responsible has moved back into her town and begins preparing for a dialogue of her own. The sessions move through anger, silence and suspicion, and not every exchange ends in agreement.

The film is written and directed by Jeanne Herry, her second feature, following In Safe Hands in 2018 and preceding Another Day in 2026. It is a French production, and Herry's screenplay assembles a large credited cast of 46, among them Leïla Bekhti, Élodie Bouchez, Suliane Brahim, Birane Ba and Dali Benssalah. The subject matter is handled as an ensemble drama rather than through a single protagonist, with the group sessions and Chloé's parallel preparation carrying the film's attention.

On IMDb the film holds a rating of 7.5 from around 5,000 votes, while on TMDB it stands at 7.9 from 716 votes, both indicating a generally positive response. A critics' rating of 7.8 from eight reviews places it broadly in line with those audience scores.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Zhanna Erri does not hold rehearsals. Instead, she organizes individual script read-throughs with the actors to ensure they understand the lines. However, after the read-throughs, no improvisation is allowed, and actors are required to follow the script exactly and flawlessly.
  • While working on the film's script, Zhanna Erri constantly wondered whether to include scenes of violence and crime. After watching the French television series “En thérapie” (2021), she decided not to include such scenes in the film, but to allow the audience to imagine them for themselves.
