OUT OF THIS WORLD

Out of This World sheds a poetic light on a dark period in European history. It is the Second World War, and an amazing group of wanderers live a life of unrestrained freedom. Their experience has the effect of suspending the reality of war, offering a moment of respite from the prevailing violence. In the middle of 1940, during the sunniest summer of the 20th century, young Julien (Morgan Marinne) discovers both love and the troubled nature of his parents’ relationship. Caught between his father’s (Jean-Pierre Léaud) extreme violence and his mother’s (Miou-Miou) carefree attitude, he makes his way through his marginal existence. Out of This World traces the epic trajectory of simple people thrown into extraordinary circumstances, revealing the hope and humanity they nurture even as violence permeates the world around them.
