As he approaches sixty, the time has come for Pierre Leprieur to take stock of his life. What did he accomplish and what did he mess up during his life?...
As he approaches sixty, the time has come for Pierre Leprieur to take stock of his life. What did he accomplish and what did he mess up during his life? He was formerly an influential trade unionist on the docks at Le Havre. The passing years saw his relationship with his wife and his now-adult children subside. One evening, with his whole family gathered together to celebrate his birthday, the party is ruined. His sons, Jean and Simon, find themselves accused of mass drug trafficking. Whilst their sister, Emma, a criminal lawyer, tries to get them out of this difficult situation, Pierre, who is convinced that he is being targeted, does his utmost to help them. Yet he knows that if he roots around too much, he could end up unearthing truths best left untold.
Astrid appeared in short films by Stefan Liberski and Bouli Lanners, Lionel Jadot and Benoît Mariage. After Vincent Lannoo's Little Glory, it was Lannoo who offered her the lead role of Elisabeth in Au nom du fils (presented at the FIFF in 2012), which earned her a nomination for the Magritte for Best Actress in 2014. Since then, she has been filming under the direction of Costa-Gavras, Claude Lelouch, Benoît Mariage, Jalil Lespert and Xavier Giannoli. For 3 seasons she was Veronique Bosso in the prestige Canal Plus series Baron Noir created by Ziad Doueiri.

Performing
DJ Young Guru
Young Guru is a Grammy Award Winning American audio engineer, record producer, disk jockey, and record executive. He began his tenure as tour DJ for Jay-Z in 2010.
Tiera Kennedy
Rising singer/songwriter Tiera Kennedy is emerging as one of the most exciting voices in the format - injecting Country music with a breath of vitality. The Alabama native's unique sound stems from equal parts nature and nurture. She credits her celestial singing voice to God, while crediting her Country music songwriting prowess to what organically flows from her pen. Lighting a fire with her independently released self-titled EP, Nashville Scene cited Tiera as "the total package" and "a writer who has learned how to write for their own voice at a young age," while American Songwriter concurs, hailing her as "one of Nashville's most promising young singer-songwriters." Formally introducing her artistry with debut single "Found It In You", a poignant love song inspired by her relationship with her husband and creative director Kamren Kennedy, Tiera showed off her playful side with subsequent releases like the effervescent "Gentleman" and jubilant ode to home state soirees on "Alabama Nights."
Landing on several of 2022's most impressive Artist to Watch Lists, including MT's Listen Up, MusicRow's Next Big Thing and Pandora's Country Artist to Watch, Tiera took those songs and more on the road, opening for artists including Kelsea Ballerini and Danielle Bradbery, while playing festivals across the country. As she readies her forthcoming full-length debut album, Tiera delivered the project's lead single "Jesus, My Mama, My Therapist" in 2023. The infectious tune is an ode to the holy trinity of secret keeping, as its three namesakes are the only folks who can be trusted with the truth...and trusted to love you all the more for it. As gutsy as it is playful, add "Jesus, My Mama, My Therapist" to a growing catalog that continues to pave a one-car-only lane for Tiera in Country music. As the host of Apple Music Country’s, The Tiera Show, Tiera Kennedy puts her stamp on the genre daily.
