Synopsis
Legendary French actor Gerard Depardieu shines as idiosyncratic film star Georges, despondent over the prospect of his trusted bodyguard taking leave for a few weeks. When substitute Aïssa, an amateur women’s wrestling champion (Déborah Lukumuena), arrives on his doorstep, emotionally stunted Georges fears his fussy daily routines will be upended as he prepares for an upcoming role. Despite his initial protestations, the two form a friendship as they begin to affect one another’s lives. With soulfulness and punctuated by moments of levity, director Meyer eschews cliché to create an uncanny yet tender narrative of unlikely human connection.
