Beloved French-British actress Charlotte Gainsbourg stars alongside her son Ben Attal in this timely and thought-provoking drama. Alexandre (Attal), a bright 22-year-old student, is accused of raping Mila, the daughter of his mother’s (Gainsbourg) boyfriend. Whereas Alexandre is determined to prove his innocence, Mila fights to be heard: a case of his truth against hers. The conflict between Alexandre’s sense of being treated unfairly and Mila’s complex feelings about sex, influenced by her Orthodox Jewish upbringing, makes it near impossible to reach a clear verdict. Based on a best-selling novel of the same name, The Accusation is an engrossing #MeToo drama, exploring the murky side of human behaviour.

Film contains strong and explicit sexual references.
