In this stirring French film,
art does more than imitate life, it derives directly from it.

Prize. On his way to Stockholm on a motorbike, he is virtually kipnapped
by his estranged son, played by real-life progeny Guillaume Depardieu.
In a mirror of their
own relationship, the son, a former addict, tries to force his father
into a relationship by confronting him with the secrets of their shared
past. But can such things be forced?
Emotionally
