Her Name is Sabine

French actress Sandrine Bonnaire makes her directorial debut with this documentary about her younger sister, whose autism went undiagnosed for decades and whose vivacious character was almost destroyed.
The film uses home-movie footage from the past 20 years as well as new material filmed at a special home where Sabine now lives following five years in a joyless institution. The contrast between the fun-loving girl from years ago and the dispirited woman a few years later is terrible and moving.
