Tonnerre

Director: Guillaume Brac

Cast: Vincent Macaigne, Solène Rigot, Bernard Menez, Jonas Bloquet, Christine Fagiolini, Vincent Chavanes

A rocker who's too sentimental, a young who's indecisive, an elderly, whimsical father. In the small town of Tonnerre, the joys of love never last long. Then a disappearance as sudden as it is unexpected makes passion give way to obsession.
As Guillaume Brac puts it, Tonnerre means thunder in French but refers as well to a small village of the Burgundy region in France. This particular village is dear to the director’s heart, as some of his relatives live near by. “A great starting point for fiction”, he says. The city of Tonnerre may be small, but make no mistake, still waters run deep, this quiet town is not as peaceful as it seems to be…

Un rocker trop sentimental, une jeune femme indécise, un vieux père fantasque. Dans la petite ville de Tonnerre, les joies de l’amour ne durent qu’un temps. Une disparition aussi soudaine qu’inexpliquée et voici que la passion cède place à l’obsession.
