In three days, Nino Clavel will face a major challenge. But first, his doctors assign him two vital tasks. Two missions that will lead the introverted, diffident young man on a journey through Paris, compelling him to reconnect with the world – and himself.

Nino, the feature debut of Pauline Loquès, was presented in Cannes this year, where Theodore Pellin won the Critics’ Week Rising Star Award. Loques’ tender, quietly observant drama finds freshness in familiar territory and “provides a perfect expression of how the shadow of death has allowed Nino to reconnect with life” (Screen).
