Directed by Michael Haneke, Amour is a deeply moving and unflinching exploration of aging, devotion, and the emotional toll of illness. The film follows Georges (Jean-Louis Trintignant) and Anne (Emmanuelle Riva), an elderly couple whose quiet, cultured life is upended when Anne suffers a debilitating stroke. As her condition deteriorates, Georges becomes her sole caregiver, navigating the physical and emotional challenges of his wife’s decline.

With stunning performances from its leads, Amour captures the tenderness, frustration, and unyielding commitment that define true love. Haneke’s understated direction and poignant storytelling create an intimate yet universal meditation on mortality, compassion, and the sacrifices we make for those we cherish most.
