As seen at the 2024 Annecy and Cannes Film Festivals, catch the latest beautifully animated family film by French auteur Jean-François Laguionie. It’s 1950’s, France, by the serene banks of the Marne River. François, a daydreaming child of boundless imagination, has his life changed when his father decides to start building a boat in the garden. Thus begins the family’s grand odyssey, a collective venture to construct a boat that would carry them away – somewhere between reality and reverie, but less a swashbuckling adventure than a tender slice-of-life story.
