Everything Went Fine movie storyline. The film centres on Emmanuèle as she is confronted with her father André’s declining health, and his request for her help in committing medically assisted suicide. Emmanuèle is a fulfilled and accomplished novelist, both in her private and professional life.
One day, she is called urgently: her father André, aged 85, has just been hospitalized after a stroke. When he wakes up, diminished and dependent, this man, curious about everything and passionately loving life, asks his daughter to help him die. Despite their past differences, the father speaks to her rather than to his other daughter, Pascale, who finds it rather bad.
