An unbearably tense courtroom drama, We Believe You is an extraordinary first feature by Belgian filmmakers Charlotte Devillers and Arnaud Dufeys.

Miriam Akheddiou holds the film together with an intense performance as mother Alice, who has to represent her two children in a custody battle against a father who stands accused of sexual abuse. In a legal system where victims struggle to be heard and difficult confrontations are enforced, can she protect them and ensure justice is upheld?

"We Believe You captures all the stomach churning tensions of a life-changing court hearing. Tightly focused, densely scripted and impeccably acted, it is as nail biting as any splashier thriller." — Allan Hunter, Screen Daily
