The Marginalized
Michèle, in her fifties, is homeless and lives at Orly airport where she leads a hard and lonely life. Theo, a mentally handicapped young man, works at the airport and lives with his "Auntie" who has been overprotecting him since he was abandoned by his mother. When Michèle decides to find her son in Lisbon, Theo naively agrees to drive her there, but what she doesn't know is that he only has a car without a license... They then embark on an adventure on the country roads, making us follow people we don't look at, on roads we never take.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Director Samuel Benchetrit constructs a narrative around the contrast of two broken lives, using the road as a metaphor for internal liberation. He explores the fragility of human connection, relying on the subtle, unaffected performances that elevate a simple plot into a profound experience.
What lingers after the viewing is not a comedic gag, but a slow, piercing immersion into the world of those society chooses to ignore. It leaves a warm, aching sense of hope and faith in random kindness. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Frank Cimière
Best Watched
Watch on a quiet evening, prepared for a slow, contemplative film with a touch of sad humor.
