This feature is a classic first-love and coming-of-age story set in the exciting political context of 1981.
Nominated for a César, this sentimental comedy, starring Pierre Niney, handles humor and emotion with grace. In May 1981, 18-year-old Primo and Gabrielle meet. She's from the Parisian bourgeoisie; he's the son of small provincial shopkeepers. Dazzled by her charm, Primo bluffs. He invents a life, lies and makes up for the emptiness of his pockets with audacity and imagination.
