When the film premiered in Cannes, it was translated by some media as "Anatomy of Death from Falling from a Building". However, this extra-worded translation would give people the illusion that the death of the husband was caused by falling from a building——This would be equivalent to misleading the jury in court.In fact, there is no word death in the French title - Anatomied'unechute - which literally translates to %Anatomy of a Fall. It is not specified whether the victim fell to death or was attacked first and then fell.In comparison, the original title is more rigorous.
