<div>Pauline Loquès’s remarkable debut feature, which premiered at Cannes Critics’ Week, is an ode to the heyday of French New Wave filmmaking, including a tip of the hat to Agnès Varda’s <i>Cléo from 5 to 7</i>. Théodore Pellerin (<i>Lurker</i>, <i>Solo</i>), a rising talent who won the Louis Roederer Foundation Rising Star Award at Cannes last year and Best Male Revelation at this year’s César Awards, plays Nino with depth and nuance. </div><div><br></div><div>On a Friday morning, Nino attends a follow-up doctor’s appointment, where he is given some upsetting news that he has throat cancer. The treatment will start on Monday morning, but there is a high chance that it might leave him infertile, so the doctor tells him to consider freezing his sperm if there is a chance he might want children in the future. Shaken by the diagnosis – the day before his 29th birthday – and having never had to think about whether he wanted children before, an overwhelmed Nino leaves the hospital, not knowing what to do next. </div><div><br></div><div>When he randomly bumps into an old school friend, who shakes something within him, he embarks on a journey of introspection. Over the course of the weekend, he traverses the streets of Paris, forced to come to terms with his life – past and present – and to reconnect with friends, his family and himself. </div><div><br></div>DramaPT1H37M152026-06-19
