One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
Gauthier, a young journalist, learns through his mother that he's the illegitimate son of Guy Jamet, an aging French pop singer who was famous from the '60s to the '90s. As the old-time crooner embarks on a tour to promote his newly released cover album, Gauthier decides to follow him behind the scenes, on stage, and on the road, under the pretext of filming a documentary about his career.
"It could be a real documentary, but in fact, this movie is a mockumentary, a drama that uses documentary elements to tell a story. Director and actor Alex Lutz poses as a once famous singer, Guy Jamet, in an ironic commentary on fatherhood and the fleeting nature of fame. It's so good that it will surely make some viewers think that it is really a documentary. Part of the official selection of the Semaine de la Critique, a parallel show to the Cannes Festival."
