Balthazar, le fils
Music is the story of a father and son. Or, rather, the story of the reunion between a father and son who have hardly seen each other over many years and who clumsily attempt to renew bonds. Unfortunately, too much time has already passed and it will be impossible to strengthen the ties. But although they lose each other again, the father will nevertheless pass on a legacy to his son: the love of music.
Balthazar
Filmed in only five days during a hot summer in Marseilles, Emmanuel Marre’s Prix Jean Vigo winning The Summer Movie chronicles the unlikely friendship between an aimless thirty-seven-year-old and his friend’s nine (and-a-half) year-old kid. After Philippe, a middle-aged filmmaker, abruptly quits a job he loved, the trio find themselves on a roadtrip to nowhere.
