Successful chef Cécile is on the verge of opening her own restaurant in Paris when her father suddenly suffers a heart attack. She returns to her hometown and her old childhood bedroom to help her mother at the family roadside diner. Surrounded by old friends, home-cooked food and an old flame, Cécile begins to reconsider her life choices and think about what she really wants.
A tender, colourful and humorous portrait of working-class life in the French countryside, punctuated by sudden bursts of beloved pop classics. With this film, Amélie Bonnin made history as the first debut feature director to open the Cannes Film Festival in 2025.
