In the working-class district of old Marseille, Rosa is the heart and soul of her community, a nurse and the matriarch of a large and close-knit family. She meets Henri and realizes it is never too late to fulfill her own dreams.
Imdb
- There’s something extraordinary, and indeed comforting, in the fact that Robert Guédiguian, his cinema, his Marseille, and his actors—Ariane Ascaride, Jean– Pierre Darroussin, Gérard Meylan, always them—are still there. Not out of sentimentality or—worse—nostalgia, but because they are witnesses to an extremely lucid perspective on the contemporary world and today’s society, as determined and persistent as ever. Guédiguian remains one of the few European filmmakers capable of creating cinema with strong personal traits— which could even be called private if not for the fact that “private” is a concept far removed from his poetic and mindset— but at the same time universally resonant. This is because he has managed to construct a narrative style where repetition, seen as a variation on a theme, finds its own meaning.
Scraps from the loft
- Surrounded by his family of actors (Ariane Ascaride, Gérard Meylan…), Guédiguian once again believes in the light at the end of the road and celebrates this young generation that is taking up the fight, with the same energy and the same utopia as the elders of which he is a part. We come out pumped up and a few tears in the corners of our eyes.
