The programmer’s eye
Nora is about to get married. Ismaël is mistakenly placed in a psychiatric hospital. Their lives intertwine when Nora asks Ismaël to adopt her son Ellias. Through this double tragicomical portrayal of two ex-lovers (two wonderful perfomances from Devos and Amalric), Kings and Queen powerfully deals with grief and filial transmission, the end and beginning of a story.
