Sandra c'est la Vie is a wonderful film about ordinary people and ordinary situations. No special effects, no action, no glamour...just people. Dominique Othenin-Girard has often been kicked down both in Hollywood and Europe by people who are judging from horror films like Halloween 5. Not one of them mentions this beautiful and sensible film. Probably no one knows about it. It's a shame. I just love directors like this who are not ashamed to produce trashy films and then suprise you by coming up with something really, really good. Sandra c'est la Vie does not deserve to be tucked away in oblivion. I will not say anything about the plot, but the style of this film as well as its genre is close to that of Il Ladro di Bambini and Central do Brasil. Do watch it if you get the chance and see what a great director/writer Hollywood is missing.
