An unforgettable comedy gem from the Alliance Française French Film Festival 2026
Grandma, her messy family, and a busted camper van – one road trip that changes everything.When 80-year-old Marie announces a family trip to Switzerland to collect a mysterious inheritance, her unreliable son and teenage granddaughter climb aboard a battered camper van without asking too many questions.
Joined by a reluctant caregiver turned driver, the unlikely group sets off on a chaotic and heartfelt road trip filled with detours, misunderstandings, and laughter.
As the journey unfolds, three generations are drawn closer together, forcing Marie to question what really matters – and with whom she wants to face what comes next.
Along the way, love, humour, and the messy beauty of being together emerge unexpectedly.
Will Marie find the courage to reveal the true purpose of their journey?
