Synopsis

Thirty years after their separation, Jane Birkin goes back, dipping into the memories of the family holidays she shared with Serge Gainsbourg. With her typical honesty wit and tenderness, she commentates on her own super 8 films. Serge the protector, the clown, looking after the children, quite another image of the now so famous man, adored and respected, and so terribly missed. Here, we are witness to this sensitive shy man, irresistibly funny and kind.
