LES CHOSES QU'ON DIT, LES CHOSES QU'ON FAIT / LOVE AFFAIR(S)

Vacations in the French countryside. Daphne, three months pregnant, finds herself alone to welcome Maxime, her boyfriend François’ cousin. François had to leave in a hurry for Paris to cover for a sick colleague. For four days, while waiting for his return, Daphne and Maxime get to know each other and share very intimate stories that bring them closer.

EMANUEL MURE / EMMANUEL MOURET

He directed his first short film at the age of 19, while living in Marseille. Moving to Paris, he studied drama and then directing at FEMIS. He is a director who often plays the main role in his films, and he signs the script every time. His films premiered at festivals in Cannes and Venice, were overwhelmed by critics and were gladly watched in cinemas.

Emmanuel Mouret trials and skilfully succeeds at a new recipe for decrypting the complexity of the love choices we make.
