Award Winning Independent Cinema

The story centres on Paul Dédalus (Amalric), an anthropologist preparing to leave Tajikistan, who has a series of flashbacks that include his childhood in Roubaix, his mother's attacks of madness and his father's alienating depression. He remembers his student trip to the USSR, where a clandestine mission led him to offer up his own identity for a Russian, whom he considered a brother for the remainder of his life as well as remembering Esther, the beautiful love of his life. This beautiful film is about the unbearable sweet nature of remembered youth.

Dir. Arnaud Desplechin, France, 2017, 120 mins, subtitled.
Cast. Mathieu Amalric, Lou Roy-Lecollinet.
