Amour is a French-language drama film directed by Michael Haneke. The film premiered at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Palme d'Or. The movie tells the story of Georges and Anne, a retired music couple who have been married for decades and live in their Parisian apartment.
One day, Anne suffers a stroke that leaves her partially paralyzed. The stroke leaves her in a wheelchair, and Georges promises Anne that he will never send her to a hospital or nursing home. He takes on the responsibility of caring for Anne on his own, with the help of a neighbor who occasionally drops by to check on them.
Over time, Anne's condition worsens, and Georges finds himself struggling to care for her alone. He becomes increasingly isolated from the world outside their apartment, and the film becomes a meditation on the couple's relationship as their bond is tested by Anne's illness.
Towards the end of the film, Georges makes a difficult decision that ultimately leads to a tragic conclusion. The movie is a poignant portrayal of love, ageing, and the fragility of the human body and mind. It is a deeply emotional and unforgettable exploration of love, loss, and the challenges that come with ageing.
