ANOTHER WORLD
Starring Vincent Lindon, Sandrine Kiberlain, Anthony Bajon, Marie Drucker, Olivier Lemaire, Guillaume Draux, Christophe Rossignon, Sarah Laurent, Joyce Bibring and Olivier Beaudet. Directed by Stéphane Brizé.
Lindon plays Philippe Lemesle, an executive who oversees the regional factory of an industrial multi-national. He has dedicated his life to the company, balancing relations with his employees while placating his bosses and their American overlords. But it’s come at a high personal cost - he and partner Anne are separating, and his relationship with troubled son Lucas is also foundering. So when the already-frayed Philippe is tasked by management with a downsizing operation, he faces a major crisis of conscience.
