Take a break from all the bleak American dramas with a cinematic escape
to Provençe.
A dreamy pastoral landscape and dreamier male lead delicately woo in the
quiet French film, The
Grocers Son. The coming-of-age story follows a wayward young
man who returns to his rural hometown to help with the family grocery
business after his father falls ill. While hoping to win the heart of a
young divorcee, he encounters a host of colourful locals, and ultimately
himself.
