      Movie Info

      Jean-Luc (Charles Berling), a successful geriatrician, enjoys a comfortable life with his wife, Isa (Natacha Régnier). He is shocked to learn that his father, Maurice (Michel Bouquet), who had abandoned the family years earlier, has died in Africa -- and is even more shocked when Maurice shows up a short time later at his house. Without explaining his presence, Maurice insinuates himself into his son's life, charming Isa but bringing Jean-Luc's buried resentment to the surface.
