Grand amour
Description:
Just after Eva's thirteenth birthday, a juvenile court judge decides to remove Irène—her abusive photographer mother—from her custody. The young girl is then torn between two worlds: the world of the DDASS (Departmental Directorate of Health and Social Affairs) centers, where she shares her daily life as a prisoner with other abandoned teenage girls, and the world of 1980s Paris, where, with an inseparable group of friends, she plunges into partying and adventure, drugs and violence. Into the chaos of her existence appears Charles, the man she has been waiting for, who becomes her anchor. Together, they share a passionate love, imbued with poetry and an unprecedented tenderness, in the streets of Pigalle and the Sentier district. Eva Ionesco resurrects this foundational and redemptive story from the depths of her memory. With a style of rare sensitivity, capturing nocturnal, joyful, anguished, tragic, and liberating scenes like a camera, Grand Amour seizes upon the end of her childhood and the truth of her youth
