Honoré (Love Songs) returns with a sharply observed holiday family drama à la Desplechin. After splitting with her husband, single mom Mastroianni (in one of her best performances) escapes Paris for the parents’ home in Brittany with two kids in tow. But what to expect when her ex comes knocking? Features a cameo by Louis Garrel and XTC on the soundtrack. In French with English subtitles.
