Un père et passe

About This Movie

So, 'Un père et passe' is an interesting little comedy from 1989 that dives into family dynamics and the quest for identity. The story revolves around Camille, played by Penelop Schallenberg, who’s trying to uncover her father's identity. The pacing is pretty relaxed, letting the humor unfold naturally, often through awkward situations and Camille’s earnestness. Veronique Genest as Marianne brings a nice, layered performance, balancing her character's journalistic ambition with the weight of secrets. There’s this underlying tension between mother and daughter that the film navigates, which adds a bit of depth. It's not flashy, more grounded, with practical moments that feel relatable. Definitely not your typical comedy, this one has its quirks.
