Summary
Peter (Denis Ménochet) is an acclaimed filmmaker with a healthy appetite for life. It’s 1972 and he is at the height of his powers. His assistant Karl (Stefan Crépon) barely hides his feelings for his employer, who shows him no kindness or respect. When Peter’s friend, the singer Sidonie (Isabelle Adjani), pays a visit, she brings along her young companion Amir (Khalil Ben Gharbia), knowing that Peter will fall for him. Soon enough, the two are a couple. But a short passage of time finds the relationship imploding and the emotional shrapnel scarring everyone, from Peter’s mother Rosemary (Hanna Schygulla) and Sidonie to his mostly neglected teen daughter Gabrielle (Aminthe Audiard).What do you think of Peter von Kant?
