Vies (2000)
Directed by Alain Cavalier

Documentary
aka: Lives

Film Synopsis

Alain Cavalier films the final days' work of four people from completely different walks of life - an eye surgeon, a sculptor, a butcher and a woman who, during two years, was an assistant to Orson Welles.  Do any of them take pride in what they have achieved in the course of their career, or do they harbour any lingering regrets...?
