Synopsis
Starring Catherine Deneuve and Chiara Mastroianni, this sly and exquisitely romantic musical drama from Christophe Honore spans over three decades as it follows a mother and daughter's misadventures in love. In the '60s, Madeleine leaves Paris to re-join her Czech husband Jar mil in Prague, but his infidelities and the arrival of Russian tanks in the city lead her back to France. Thirty years later we follow the romance of Madeleine's daughter, Vera, who falls in love with a musician in London who is incapable of devoting himself to her. Meanwhile in Paris, a re-married Madeleine has rekindled her love affair with Jaromil. Louis Garrel and Paul Schneider also star in this light-hearted but ultimately moving exploration of the changing nature of relationships, with music by Alex Beaupain.
