Angsty 11-year-old Cyril refuses to believe he has been rejected by his single father. Although he spends his days desperately searching for him, the patience and compassion of stranger Samantha, who agrees to care for him, offers the boy a chance to move on.
Breaking from tradition, two-time Palme d’Or winners Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne—who are back in Cannes this year with a new film—cast a star, Belgian actress Cécile de France, for this bright and buoyantly optimistic socially-conscious fairytale. Winner of the Cannes Film Festival’s Grand Prix.
