After Cannes, it is currently set to be released in later summer 2021 in theaters and on Amazon Prime Video. Simon Helberg co-stars.
This love story follows Henry (Driver), a stand-up comedian, and Ann (Cotillard), a renowned opera singer and their glamorous and passionate romance. When they have their first child Annette, a child with a mysterious gift, however, their world is flipped upside down.
