Patrick Dewaere, My Hero

Actress Lola Dewaere recounts the film career and traumatic life of celebrated actor Patrick Dewaere, the father she never knew. Her narrative unfolds under the watchful eye of director Alexandre Moix. This is more than a biographical study; it's a daughter's intimate journey through archives, film reels, and the memories of those who orbited the star of 1970s French cinema. The viewer witnesses not only the rise and tragic fall of a gifted performer but also a complex process of reconciliation with a ghost who remained off-screen for decades.
