Cafe De Flore

French-Canadian drama of two stories - Antoine (Kevin Parent) is a superstar DJ in latter-day Montreal whose success can't mask the sadness he feels around his first wife; in late-60s Paris, meanwhile, a fiercely protective single mother (a dowdified Vanessa Paradis) raises a young boy with Down's syndrome (Marin Gerrier).

These periods are linked by the title track – a Parisian chanson, remixed as chillout in Montreal. Yet the music, like the Down's syndrome in the very-much-secondary strand, is merely there to provide some emotional substance while le pauvre Antoine mopes to his therapist about the woes of touring and finding multiple soulmates.

French with English subtitles.
