About The Heart Exposed
When 24 year old apiring actor Mathieu meets and falls for 39 year old Jean-Marc who has just ended a seven year relationship, things are not all roses. In addition to their age difference there's the matter of Mathieu's five year old son from a previous marriage.
Directed by Jean-Yves Laforce, The Heart Exposed leans on a strong ensemble — Gilles Renaud, Olivier Chassé, Louisette Dussault — 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 screen titles of 1986.
