Thibaut is a world-renowned conductor who travels the globe. When he learns that he was adopted, he discovers the existence of a brother, Jimmy, a school cafeteria worker who plays the trombone in a brass band in northern France. On the surface, everything separates them, except for their love of music. Detecting his brother's exceptional musical talent, Thibaut takes it upon himself to rectify the injustice of fate. Jimmy then begins to dream of a different life…


In his third feature film after Cessez-le-feu and Un triomphe, Emmanuel Courcol explores the themes of resilience and social determinism. Premiered in the Official Selection at the Cannes Film Festival.


“This is not a movie that reinvents the wheel, but it’s solid entertainment that provides much to think about and some delightful music.” – Sarah Manvel, NEXT BEST PICTURE
