Headwinds (2011)
A beautiful movie
24 December 2011
Warning: Spoilers
That's the second feature directed by Jalil Lespert. His first try was released in 2007 - I don't remember the title - and was also a very intense film, downbeat and depressing at the most.

This second film is another good one, powerful drama, played by convincing actors. Benoit Magimel gives here an incredible performance as a writer, a novelist, whose the wife suddenly disappears, leaving him alone with their two kids and his despair. A touching, poignant movie that hits you to the heart. The ending is very close to another french film I commented three months ago: RIF.

A real must.
