Thibaut, a world-renowned conductor, will, during a bone marrow transplant, discover the existence of a brother Jimmy, employed in a school canteen and trombone player in a brass band in the north of France. Illness, adoption, social determinism and of course the love of music which will bring these two brothers together.
Benjamin Lavernhe from the Comédie Française, Thibaut is him in this film “En fanfare”. A slalom between melodrama and comedy.
Jimmy is Pierre Lottin. A big guy in this film battered by life and an actor who has become great since “Les Tuche”, “La nuit du 12”, “Grace to God”, more recently, “When Autumn Comes.”
At his side this morning, the regional of the stage. Jacques Bonnafféthe true northerner of the group. Actor, storyteller, director and “athlete of verbal twists and turns.”
After a triumphant tour in the north “En fanfare” on our screens next Wednesday, and many other releases…
