Juliette returns home to navigate family tensions, buried secrets, and unexpected connections in this tender portrait.

Returning to her home town to spend time with her family, Juliette, a children’s book illustrator, finds herself between a loving but moody father, a New Age mother, a sister in the middle of an existential crisis, and a grandmother slowly losing her mind and who has to come to terms with her new life in a nursing home. And then there’s the friendly, somewhat lonely Pollux, who crosses Juliette’s path by chance. Buried memories and family secrets rise to the surface in this sweet, tender and sometimes extravagant family portrait.

Lenoir and Maud Ameline adapt a brilliant graphic novel by Camille Jourdy to create a moving epic of feelings.

"Lenoir skilfully casts her feminist gaze on the role of men and women in society but without peremptory discourse."
