Rachel loves her life, her students, her friends, her ex, her guitar lessons. When she falls in love with Ali, she grows close to his 4-year-old daughter, Leila. She tucks her in, looks after her, and loves her like a mother... which she isn’t. Not yet. Rachel is 40. The desire for a family of her own is growing stronger, and the clock is ticking. Is it too late?

Sophie's Misfortunes poster

Sophie is far from being the model little girl one would like her to be, unlike her friends Camille and Madeleine. She always insists on having her own way, often getting into trouble, to the despair of one and all. But her mother is unbending and otherwise inclined. She will not let her get away with anything, and poor Sophie will often have to live with the consequences of her bad behaviour and learn her lesson.

Sorry Angel poster

Brought together by chance, the two men find themselves navigating a casual fling that gradually deepens into a tender, transformative bond.

Le Ciel de Nantes poster
NR

‘Le Ciel de Nantes’ is the film that Christophe Honoré never dared to make. Too painful, no doubt, since it depicts part of his family in a major showdown, where anger and settling of scores alternate with outpourings of tenderness and displays of love.
