Synopsis by Mark Deming
Following Marius and Fanny in Nicholas Ribowski's La Trilogie Marseillaise, Cesar finds Fanny (Gaela Le Devehat) living a comfortable life in middle age, with her son Cesariot (Sebastien Delorme) just entering college. However, when Cesariot learns that his father is really Marius (Eric Poulain), he's shattered and humiliated by this lesson about his heritage. It is left to Cesar (Roger Hanin) to intervene and soothe the boy's feelings as he tries to bring long-separated Fanny and Marius back together.
