In Your Arms
Dans tes bras

Director: Hubert Gillet
Actors: Michèle Laroque / Martin Loizillon / Catherine Mouchet

Louis was abandoned by his mother when he was only a few weeks old. Now sixteen, he wants to know where he comes from and despite the reluctance of his adoptive parents he heads south to find the mother he's never known. Totally thrown by this unexpected visit, florist Solange violently rejects the child she never desired and had forgotten for so long, leaving Louis in despair and unable to comprehend the pain that his return is causing his mother. But Louis perseveres, and in the midst of this turmoil he searches for, and finds himself. Stumbling between obstacles and small victories, a fledgling but luminous relationship develops between Louis and his mother. Could this be a new beginning?

Hubert Gillet drew on his own experiences as an adopted child for this sincere and sensitive feature debut that follows the very complicated reunion of a teenager and his biological mother.
