My Life with James Dean

Still pining for his ex-boyfriend, Géraud has come to a French seaside town to present his new experimental film, but the only person keen on seeing it is the cinema's underage projectionist who becomes smitten with the handsome director. With sexy charm and a fondness for slapstick humor, My Life with James Dean offers several protagonists going to ridiculous extremes in the name of passion, but with great reserves of optimism and hope that keep them chasing that feeling.
