‘PREMIERE: La Vanité - Lionel Baier’

David Miller wants to put an end to his life. This ill, elderly architect leaves nothing to chance and turns to an assisted-suicide organization. But Espe, the woman who is supposed to accompany him to his final exit, does not seem that familiar with the procedures, and David tries everything he can to persuade Treplev, the Russian male prostitute in the next room, to bear witness to his final breath, as required under Swiss law. Over the course of one night, all three will discover that a taste for company and maybe even love are stubbornly tenacious emotions.
