About

Eredità tells the story of two neighbors who support each other through difficult moments in their lives.

The director imagines that the ghost of the former owner has remained in his apartment. Muguette, his neighbor, collects a clutter of objects picked up from the street in her home.

Facing illness and death, each of them reveals traces of their family heritage. Memory does not fade; it stays stuck somewhere…

Produced by Les films de l'Aqueduc.
