An unexpected inheritance brings four distant relatives together in a long-abandoned country house in Normandy; old documents and pictures in the dilapidated building reveal a family history from long ago: In 1895, their common ancestor Adèle set off for Paris at the age of 21. She experienced a city on the cusp of modernity, where the advent of photography and the beginnings of impressionist painting inspired the creativity of a new avant-garde.
Cédric Klapisch, a fixture in French cinema since L'AUBERGE ESPAGNOLE, takes us on a journey into the heart of the French capital of the fin de siècle with many influential modernist artists in his latest film.
