Charlotte Gainsbourg turns in an exuberant performance as Nina, Romain Gary’s overbearing single mom, and César-winner Pierre Niney plays the illustrious author in this filial love story adapted from Gary’s autobiographical novel of the same name. Hounding the boy at every turn — from his childhood in Poland, to his adolescence in the South of France, to his WWII adventures as a bombardier — Nina continually brags to everyone she meets that her son will become a great writer, a war hero, a French ambassador, and a Knight of the Legion of Honor. She thrusts her monumental aspirations onto her young son… and the beleaguered boy is determined to realize them for her.
