Aymeric runs into Florence, a former coworker, one evening in Saint-Claude in the Haut-Jura. She is six months pregnant and single. When she gives birth to Jim, Aymeric is there. They spend happy years together until Christophe, Jim's biological father, shows up.... It could be the start of a melodrama, it's also the start of an odyssey into fatherhood.

Starring Karim Leklou, a seasoned character actor whose melancholic face recalls Peter Lorre, this is a touching melodrama of fatherhood that depicts a relentlessly nice guy who somehow walks wide-eyed into an emotional catastrophe. Go to Full Review
