With Benjamin Lavernhe, Pierre Lottin, Sarah Suco

A music-filled and oh-so-French comedy/drama reunites two brothers separated in childhood by adoption. The strains of Ravel’s “Bolero” run through this tale of family lost and found when Thibault, an orchestra conductor, is compelled by a medical emergency to seek a DNA match and discovers the brother he never knew. Just when it appears that refined Thibault and wrong-side-of-the-track Jimmy, a smalltown factory worker, will never reach a meeting of the minds, a musical crisis that threatens Jimmy’s beloved hobby, the factory employee’s band, becomes the catalyst for a finale that spectacularly merges community, family, and rousingly tuneful innovation in a way sure to bring audiences to their feet.

“Relatable and deeply touching…one of the most memorable films of the year.”—Federico Battiato, The Peoples’ Movies
