THE LAST HAMMER BLOW
Starring Romain Paul, Clotilde Hesme and GÉgory Gadebois.
Soccer mad fourteen-year-old Victor lives in a community of trailers and huts on the seaside with his single mother Nadia. One day after practice Nadia announces she’d like him to go live with her parents. Victor decides instead to seek out his long-absent father, the famous conductor Samuel Rovinski who has recently arrived to rehearse Mahler’s Sixth Symphony with the local orchestra. Samuel is less than welcoming, but the initial hostility soon turns to an awkward kind of tenderness, and – possibly – love.
