Victor, a disillusioned man in his sixties, sees his life turned upside down when Antoine, a brilliant entrepreneur, offers him a unique kind of attraction: blending theatrical artifice with historical reenactment, Antoine’s company allows clients to revisit a chosen period from their past. Victor decides to relive the most defining week of his life — the one, forty years earlier, when he met the love of his life. Described by The Hollywood Reporter as “sexy and original” and by Variety as “a French Westworld with actors instead of robots,” La Belle Époque won three César Awards in 2020: Best Supporting Actress (Fanny Ardant), Best Original Screenplay (Nicolas Bedos), and Best Production Design.
