A family operating a traditional puppet theater in Paris steadfastly upholds their artistic stance, but the successive passing of the father and grandmother prompts the younger generation to contemplate their future. This family drama is inspired by the true story of the father of French cinema master Philippe Garrel, and the director's three children deliver outstanding performances in the film. The narrative is steady yet imbued with warmth and humor, alleviating the heaviness associated with the theme of death, while the emotional bonds among three generations reflect the changes in the cultural backdrop of French society from a micro perspective. It won the Silver Bear for Best Director at the 2023 Berlin International Film Festival.
