The Grocer's Son, Dir Eric Guirado, France 2007
Valentine's Special: The Grocer's Son
14 February 2010
£9 / £8 Concessions / £7 ICA members
The unshowy, elegant story of a thirty-something son coming back from the city to help his elderly parents with the family business in Provence. This picks up as a romance with a childhood friend develops. This is a different kind of coming-of-age film, where the surly protagonist slowly lets go of his aspirations and relaxes into the riches of community and reality.
Dir Eric Guirado, France 2007, 96 mins, subtitles
