JUST AN ILLUSION 12A

Mon 28 Sep - Tues 29 Sep & Thurs 1 Oct, Stamford Arts Centre film

Louis Garrel (Little Women, The Innocent) and Camille Cottin (Call My Agent!) star in this heartfelt comedy-drama set in fizzy, vibrant 1980s Paris. 

Dir: Eric Toledano, Olivier Nakache | France | 2026 | 116 mins | Subtitled

Cast | Louis Garrel, Camille Cottin, Simon Boublil, Pierre Lottin

 

Eric Toledano and Olivier Nakache’s (The Intouchables) latest is a warm, deeply personal and nostalgic look at family life in 1985 suburban Paris.

Almost 13, Vincent (Simon Boublil) lives outside Paris with his middle-class family, caught between an older brother (Pierre Lottin) who brushes him off and parents (Louis Garrel, Camille Cottin) who never stop arguing. No longer a kid but not yet an adult, Vincent fumbles through life's big questions: identity, friendship, family, first crushes... and why the adults around him never seem to have things figured out either.
