Nobody from Nowhere

Sébastien Nicolas has always dreamed of being someone else. But he never had the imagination. So he copies. He observes, then imitates the people he encounters. He moves through their lives. But some journeys have no return ticket. Sébastien Nicolas is a quiet unassuming individual who only has one passion in life – to imitate the lives of people he meets. And imitate in the full sense of the word. He works hard to copy physically and verbally his chosen victims going as far as to break into their homes and assuming their identity when they are away. A harmless enough occupation until he meets Henri de Montalte, a famous musician, with whom he is both fascinated and repelled. By taking on his identity, Sébastien becomes involved in Montalte's fraught relationship with an ex-lover and her son but soon realises this is one fantasy life he is reluctant to give up. (Cinemax)
