Paris, 1992. Julien, a science PhD student, learns of the death of Christophe, a young suburban hairdresser he had met a few months earlier. He sets off on a journey to retrace their history and try to understand and forgive.
A passionate cinephile, but a scientist by training, Frédéric Lavigne changed professions after a thesis and five years of research. He became programmer of the Premiers Plans festival in Angers, then Audiovisual Attaché at the French Institute in London, before joining the Forum des images as Director of Educational Action. In 2010, he programmed the new Séries Mania festival, becoming artistic director in 2017 when it moved to Lille. In 2023, he wrote and directed Cœurs perdus, his first short fiction film.
