Road-Movie in hearse
Co-directed by Alexandre Jollien and Bernard Campan, who also play the main roles, “Almost” is a fair and sensitive road movie around the theme of disability, skillfully mixing humor and tenderness. Aboard their black hearse launched on the roads between Switzerland and the south of France, Campan and Jollien form a strange tandem and offer us a beautiful lesson in life. To discover in preview at CGR the French of Bordeaux, Monday November 29, 2022 at 8:00 p.m.
