Why we chose it

Thanks to its audacious directing, remarkable use of sound, and the acting talent of Timothée Robart, this first feature film accurately portrays the complexity of its era, from political disillusionment to the liberating energy of rock’n’roll.

Synopsis

A small provincial town at the beginning of the 80s. Phillipe lives in the shadow of his brother, Jerome, the bad boy of the group. Between pirate radio, their father’s garage and the threat of military service, they are unaware that they are living the last moments of a world on the verge of disappearing.
