I think there are political dimensions in the film, but I think as for my other films, they are never really in the front. I mean, I think if there is a political dimension in the film, it's more about the fact that it reflects on meditates, on how aged and ill aged people are treated in France and in the hospitals, the lack of proper attention, the lack of life in those places and how it affects, not only the people who are sick, but also the people around them who are trying to help them. And I'm still very shocked by the situation, which I really discovered. I mean, I knew somehow like everybody does, but when you leave it, when you experience it with somebody who you love and who you see dying in those places, it's really heartbreaking. For instance, I realized when I changed my father from one nursing home to the other, which was a better place, not it was actually not more expensive or more luxurious, at all, it was just a place where, for some reasons, the people who were working there were happier, so they were taking care of the people better. And he actually stood up, like in the one where there was nobody to take care of the patients and they were just left alone in their rooms, he had started to really, so I'm going to be... To hunch over, he couldn't stand up anymore, he was his head was just facing the ground, and when we moved him to this other place, suddenly he... He straightened up. He straightened up, and so that I could see in a very objective way how the attention of the people in this hospital can actually change influence the illness, even for people who have illness that cannot be healed. So I think in that perspective, I would say the film is political, it is true that there is the mother who is politically involved in the film too, but that's a very different topic, I would say in this case, to me it was more about giving some kind of revenge to the character of things to come, in things to come, a previous film that I did about a philosophy teacher who was abandoned by, well, left by her husband, and she was quite depressed and she had to get over it, and it looked like as if the man was having a new life in his 60s when the woman could only become a grandmother, and so I think it was kind of some kind of revenge to me, but in a nice way, I don't mean it in a mean way, to have the female character now in her 70s, actually be the one who has a new start in life when her husband is the one who is now sick.

The last point I'm gonna make, because our time is up, the film I saw before yours was John Wick 4, which ends on the steps by the Sacricut, and there's lots of violence and bloodshed, so when we get to the moment in your film where we're on the steps of the Sacricut, I thought, oh, thank you very much, that's a lot
