Childhood pals have their rural boredom rocked when romance blossoms for one of the pair.
Childhood pals Dog and Mirales live in a small village in the south of France and spend most of the time hanging around in the streets. To kill time, Mirales usually teases Dog mercilessly but this autumn is different when Dog meets Elsa and romance blossoms. Jealousy eats away at Mirales opening up a gulf between the two friends. The past will have to be left behind to allow each to grow and define himself. Set amidst the languor of rural France, this social coming-of-age story provides a touching and comic portrait of friendship driven by the performances of Anthony Bajon and Raphaël Quenard. Seven César award nominations.
"A funny and touching chronicle, perfectly acted."
