Charlotte Gainsbourg (also in Lux Aeterna, SWIFF 23), shines in this warmly optimistic portrait of a 1980’s Parisian family, pulling through together in troubled times.

On election night in 1981, there is an air of hope and change throughout Paris. But for Elisabeth, her marriage is coming to an end, and she will now have to support her family alone. Finding work as a late-night radio host, she meets Talulah, a charismatic young woman who is struggling, and invites her home. Here, Talulah experiences the warmth of family, and Elisabeth’s family are inspired by her free spirit.

A heart warming drama, filled with small acts of kindness, vinyl LPs, political optimism, talkback radio, eighties atmosphere, and a family and mother repairing over time.

“A gorgeous invitation to slow down and take it all in before life passes by.” – IndieWire
