André is 55 and still lives with his 80-year-old mother Louise, an actress. He leads an unspectacular life as a taxi driver and cannot seem to muster the courage to speak to the woman working at the wurst stand on the model aircraft flying field. Until Bill, an American, appears…

The refreshing family drama Lovely Louise portrays with whimsical humor and bottomless heart the life of a man whose notions and habits are challenged by an unexpected arrival. Heart-warming as an incisive character study, and hilarious as an offbeat comedy full of quirky family dynamics.
