    • Synopsis
    • Under pressure from his brother Joseph, whom he hasn’t seen for 25 years, Paolo resolves to leave his
      peaceful and well-ordered life in Canada for a few days, and return to Marseille and the bedside of his
      father, who has had an accident.
      He heads back with his son, with no intention of lingering in the port city that he fled many years earlier
      following a tragic incident.
      He has no idea that the affection of his long-lost family, a romantic encounter with a young woman,
      and the cheerful camaraderie of the people of Marseille will reconcile him with the city that, in fact, he
      never really wanted to leave.
