Téléphone-moi

TÉLÉPHONE-MOI FOR THE FIRST TIME IN PARIS! Téléphone-moi is a sweeping family saga that spans the century.

Almost in the manner of an epistolary novel, it is through telephone conversations that we enter the history of this family. It is in telephone boxes that the characters’ lives tip over, where everything comes to life and where people also die. It is in these booths that the key moments of their lives take place, the great joys as well as the tragedies.

Jumping from one era to another, from the Liberation of Paris to Zidane’s victory, following the advertising jingles we have all hummed and which populate our collective unconscious, we gradually piece together this suspenseful family investigation, in which we discover the incredible power of intergenerational transmission.
