Romantic Guide to Lost Places (2022)
Why watch this film?
In this unconventional love and friendship story, Clive Owen ('Closer: Too Close') and Jasmine Trinca play two strangers who, by force of destiny, embark on a journey together. She, a young and anxious travel journalist, he, a middle-aged alcoholic. From this unexpected encounter, we have a sweet and melancholic road movie through inhospitable places in Europe -- and which is also a journey of self-discovery with these characters. With an air of 'Leaving Las Vegas', the film also features Irène Jacob ('The Double Life of Veronique').
