My Best Part

Garçon Chiffon

61st TIFF: Greek premiere

Jérémie’s rampant jealousy has exhausted his partner to the point of a breakup. Job-wise, his acting career is trailing along with his miserable love life. Jérémie, standing on the precipice of a typically Parisian depression, heads to his mother’s house in the countryside, aiming to pull himself together for an important audition. However, the return to his roots will prove anything but restful. Bordering between light comedy and bittersweet drama, an insightful journey of self-knowledge that delves into modern man’s existential tragicomedy.
