J'ai pensé à vous tous les jours

Cedric, known as The Quick, spends his early years in state care after being abandoned at birth. A teacher named Bernard breaks the news that he has a brother, Mathieu, called Little M, a fact Cedric never suspected. Mathieu has grown up far from Cedric’s world, in a wealthy suburb with a secure family. When the siblings finally meet, the collision of their backgrounds is immediate, messy, and awkward, yet each man carries a shared ache: they have no memory of their mother. They resolve to locate her, pulling into a precarious path that tests their trust in one another and asks what family really means. What begins as a clash slowly reveals fragile bonds beneath the surface. Their path also tests loyalties and reveals quiet resilience.

Directed by Jérôme Foulon, this 2008 French drama is based on an original screenplay by Jackye Fryszman. It pairs Pascal Légitimus, Vincent Valladon, Zinedine Soualem and Julien Frison in a story that favors restrained, intimate camera work with steady pacing.
