Suzanne isn’t just the subject but also the troublesome centre of this ambitious and fascinatingly slippery family drama. Over several years the film follows the lives of Suzanne and her younger sister Maria, daughters of a widowed truck driver. Constantly surprising, the film makes a series of unexpected leaps in time, reminding us that real life never follows a straight narrative path.
