Le Père de mes enfants France | 2009 | col | 110 mins | dir. Mia Hansen-Love, with Chiara Caselli, Louis-Do de Lencquesaing, Alice de Lencquesaing | cert. tbc Grégoire Canvel has everything a man could want. A wife he loves, three delightful children and a stimulating job. He's a film producer who devotes almost all his time and energy to his work. He's hyperactive, he never stops. Except on weekends, which he spends in the country with his family—gentle interludes, as precious as they are fragile. With his bearing and exceptional charisma, Grégoire commands admiration. He seems invincible. Yet his prestigious production company is on its last legs. But Grégoire plows on at all costs. Where will his blind obstinacy lead him? One day, he is obliged to face the facts. In one word: failure.
