Une soeur

This was an excellent, very well made exciting short film, which makes you sit on the edge of your seat. The dialogues and the performances were all convincing and the ending was cathartic. But unfortunately this movie is kind of a copy paste of a great danish movie called "The Guilty". If that movie didn't exist I would give this one a 10/10 rating, but the plot is so similar to "The Guilty" that it couldn't surprise me despite it's great presentation. Still I think this is the best of the Oscar nominated live action short films this year this year (I haven't seen SARIA yet). P.S.: I didn't spoil "The Guilty", watch that if you liked this!

I loved it! A nice film directing, cast performed well. There is nothing to complain about. I did not like the music though so I give it 9 of 10. Other than that everything else was wonderful. Thanks.

Of the five shorts nominated by the Oscars, this was the best. A simple concept beautifully acted and shot.

"A Sister" is a 16 minute edge of your seat roller coaster ride. The pace is frenetic and relentless, you feel as if you are in the back seat of the car. Wonderful job by director Delphine Girard whom I would like see get a chance to direct a full length feature and kudos to Veerle Baetens as the 911 operator who is cool and poised under pressure and gives a performance you can feel.

Night. A man and a woman in a car. He is driving, while she has to make a phone call to her sister, who is babysitting her daughter.

I agree with a previous reviewer that his is an intense short. Well crafted, but I have a nagging disbelief as to her attitude towards what happened before the depicted story starts.
