Bouchon

2024 · 1 season

A wry, tender French comedy-drama about a woman's life snagging just as it peaks, mixing warmth with quiet unease.

Overview: Lolo is an actress and works hard to get there. She has just landed the leading role in a feature film. The apotheosis. When his father learns that he has cancer, and reacts to it like a child, the machine jams and everything goes wrong. His quest for serenity will transform into a quest for identity.
