Paris in August
Parisian publisher Henri Flandrin finds himself alone in a deserted city during the August exodus, his family away on holiday. His solitary routine is gently disrupted by Patricia, a young Englishwoman posing as a professional model for a photo shoot. A light, ephemeral romance blossoms between the two strangers against a backdrop of empty boulevards, sleepy cafés, and shuttered shops. Their fleeting connection becomes a shared summer escape from loneliness, woven from unspoken understandings, aimless strolls, and the delicate pretense of their roles.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Étienne Périer crafts less a love story and more a portrait of a city in hibernation and two people finding temporary solace within its quiet. The frames, soaked in soft sunlight, and the leisurely pace evoke a gentle melancholy and freedom from everyday burdens.
What lingers after the credits is the delicate charm of a chance encounter that feels both inevitable and transient. A refined, bittersweet comedy about the roles we play when no one is watching. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Pierre Granier-Deferre
