Angèle et Tony



Alix Delaporte : 2011

Angèle is a young woman falling apart. She arrives at a small fishing village in Normandy, fiercely determined to reconnect with her young son, Yohan, yet also scared she's unfit to take care of him. Tony is a middle-aged fisherman who lives with his widowed mother, trapped in emotional solitude. The two meet via a personal ad, and Tony finds himself attracted to her although he dislikes her blunt ways. Angèle is forthright and rough, and her attempts to seduce him are met with surprised delight. As they form a fractured relationship, will the secret that Angèle harbours threaten their future? Alix Delaporte's award-winning debut feature is an intimate, absorbing and unconventional love story about two lost souls in search of human connection.
