Romain, 23, takes a job as a night watchman in a Paris hotel. He is very close to his 85-year-old grandmother (Annie Cordy). When his grandfather dies and his father retires, Romain’s family is thrown off course, his parents experiencing a midlife crisis and his grandmother ditching the retirement home in search of her haunted past. Romain asks his employer for a leave to join her where he knows she is, in the place of her youth and her memories.

“Full of lovely humour and tenderness and a succint, yet expansive view into the jumbled vines of family dramas, MEMORIES is just really reminding us that we have only one life to live and so we ought to live it the way that is right for us.”
