Based on the International Bestseller by Filmmaker Antoine Leiris. Days after the murder of his wife in the 2015 Bataclan attacks, Antoine Leiris wrote an open letter on Facebook to his wife's killer. It was a letter of exceptional grace and defiance, stating simply that the terrorists had failed because they would never have his hate. That message was shared hundreds of thousands of times worldwide and inspired his best-selling book of the same title. In the film, Leiris sets out to meet people like him: People who are trying to rebuild their lives after terrorist attacks.. Through their stories, Antoine tries to better understand his own feelings and predict what the day will be like tomorrow, the day after, and the days following that. The film shares a message that combines optimism and emotion, a desire not to withdraw from the world, and a longing to get back a purpose in life. Will hate always resurface? Is the desire for revenge too strong? How do you overcome the death of someone you loved so much?
Originally produced by Java Films in 2016.
