Description

Screening with Forecast Public Art short film Terri Huro: Within The Skin, April 17.

Pascal Rabate’s third feature puts provincial France under the microscope in this quirky and heartwarming dramedy.

Christian is a middle aged single guy who has a long list of half-hearted failures in his life, including his marriage and his swindling career as a salesman for termite treatments. His one bright spot is his teenage daughter Vanessa, and with hopes of impressing her, he signs up to compete in a triathlon. His new-found athletic aspirations and a new woman in his life just might be his ticket for starting over.
