Synopsis
Paris, present day. Very much past his prime, once-famed actor Georges — overweight, boorish and misanthropic — is struggling with health problems and a reputation for being irascible and difficult to work with. While preparing for his latest role in a historical epic, Georges is thrown for a loop when his assistant unexpectedly takes leave, placing him dependent on Aïssa, the security company’s appointed replacement. It’s a seemingly round-the-clock position — driver, secretary, bodyguard and babysitter — but Aïssa is not easily intimidated. Whilst life may have shaped the disillusioned star and his pragmatic, assured young helper in very different ways, a singular platonic friendship begins to take root…
