Angèle & Tony, the award-winning debut feature from writer/director Alix Delaporte, is an arresting and intimate drama about two lost souls in search of human connection.
Angèle (Clotilde Hesme) is a young woman falling apart. She arrives at the seaside town of Normandy fiercely determined to reconnect with her young son, yet also scared she’s unfit to take care of him. Tony (Gregory Gadebois) is a fisherman who lives with his widowed mother, trapped in emotional solitude.
The two meet via a personal ad; Angèle is forthright and rough, and her attempts to seduce him are met with surprise: Tony literally can’t believe his luck… The two form a fractured relationship, but will the secret that Angèle harbours threaten their future?
Selected to screen in the Venice Film Festival’s prestigious Critics’ Week and awarded Best French Debut at the Deauville Film Festival, Angèle & Tony was a sleeper hit at the French box office in early 2011, quickly expanding across the country on the back of overwhelmingly positive critical and public response.
