NOTES

Title from title frames

This acclaimed drama follows three seemingly unrelated stories that carefully weave together: a French teenager and his friends on a surfing road trip that leads to tragedy; a woman in another town who learns that her weak heart is beginning to fail and action must be taken; and two teams of doctors and medical experts who struggle through their day-to-day attempts to save lives. Ultimately, HEAL THE LIVING is an impassioned story of personal connections that philosophically, spiritually and literally plumbs the depths of the human heart.  Nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay at the **César Awards**. Nominated for the Platform Prize at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. Nominated for the Queer Lion and the Venice Horizons Award for Best Film at the **Venice Film Festival**. *"At once sorrowful and optimistic, HEAL THE LIVING captures the terrifying fragility of life, even as it also recognizes the strength derived from the many connections - organic, emotional, and associative - that bind and define us." - Nick Schager, **Village Voice***
