And Their Children After Them
Back to listSynopsis
August 1992. 14 year-old Anthony and his cousin kill boredom by the lake. They live in a rusty valley in Eastern France that they share with the extinguished furnaces and factory ruins of the once-industrious small town their parents knew. A chance meeting with an older girl, Steph this stifling afternoon will unlock a summer of first love that will come to define everything, a bittersweet moment in Anthony’s life marking the end of childhood and a coming of age. Rebellious and frustrated, young Hacine turns both their lives entirely upside down. Over the course of four crucial summers, the destinies of Anthony, Steph, and Hacine intersect, collide, and intertwine. In this whirlwind of adolescent turmoil, love tries to forge a path.

Twin brothers Ludovic and Zoran Boukherma were born on June 5, 1992, in Marmande, France. Passionate about cinema from a very young age, they studied at La Cité du Cinéma in Paris. There, they met Hugo P. Thomas and Marielle Gautier, with whom they made the comedy-drama feature Willy 1st, awarded the Prix d'Ornano for Best First Feature. In 2019, they co-directed Teddy, a fantasy/werewolf comedy, as their debut feature as a duo. Then, the twins shot their third feature, Year of the Shark. Once again, it’s a “genre” movie mixed with comedy, before being approached by Hugo Sélignac and Alain Attal to adapt Nicolas Mathieu’s novel And Their Children After Them.
