Synopsis

My French Films Festival selection available until February 14, VIP members only.

The drought of 1976. Under the relentless summer sun, Gus's childhood is coming to an end. Nature is withering, emotions swell up, the family unit bursts: cracks and crannies take over everything until the unthinkable happens. The long-awaited thunderstorms will sweep across the exhausted countryside, taking a whole world with them.

Delphine Lehericey brings us a coming-of-age tale peopled with a gallery of complex characters. An impossible romance played by a duo of sizzling actresses, set against the backdrop of a rural drama.
