La Maison de faïence

For you too, when you were little, the last days of summer had a half-bitter, half-sweet taste? The sun is beating down and at the same time the stress of going back to school is starting to rumble? It's the last week of summer. After breaking his arm, Antonio tries everything to take his brother, Octave, to the funfair. His father and mother prevent him from doing so, too busy preparing his father's work dinner, organized at the end of the week. But while helping his mother, Antonio finds old objects belonging to his father that could help him...

Directed by Rachel Dano, La Maison de faïence leans on a strong ensemble — Nathan Haggege, Hélène Martinelli, Tom Mairat — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2024.
