Synopsis

What is a name? Raphaël seeks to meet the man whose name he bears, a former cycling star.

Comment

An absent father, too big, dead, but so present. A film that confronts this dead man with a living man (a friend of the father, a cyclist). And at the finish line, a "Rohmerian" director delivers his verdict: ghosts of all families, go fuck yourself.
