Such a Resounding Silence is a powerful and inspiring French film that confronts the taboo subject of incest showcasing the incredible resilience & courage of survivors.

This film not only exposes the prevalence of incest but also aims to reduce its occurrence and minimize its harm, offering hope for a better future for those impacted. Through intimate interviews, symbolic animation, captivating photography, and evocative music, the film sensitively portrays their moving stories, offering hope, empowerment and healing.

By addressing this hidden reality, this film breaks down barriers and encourages open conversations about the lifelong trauma caused by silence, denial, shame, guilt, and betrayal. It seeks to engage a broad audience—those willing to listen, confront this pervasive issue, and support survivors on their journey toward healing.
