Synopsis

The two characters of A Man and A Woman meet again: today, the former race car driver is lost in the pathways of his memory. His son helps him by seeking out the woman his father often revisits in his thoughts and dreams. Anne reunites with Jean-Louis and their story picks up where they left it.

Our take

Half a century since the seminal A Man and a Woman, Claude Lelouch, Jean-Louis Trintignant, and Anouk Aimée revisit the film’s iconic French New Wave romance, now tinged with a wistful nostalgia. This beautiful closing chapter ponders the transformative power of time, emotionally and cinematically.
