The story centers on Julien, a wisecracking professional slacker who, at 31, moves back in with his mother. The only time Julien shows any gumption at all is when he\u2019s running from responsibility, so when his high school sweetheart Marie informs him that he is the father of her 14 year-old son Jacques, his first inclination is to split. But Julien, himself a perpetual teenager, soon finds that he has plenty in common with his offspring, from a love for videogames to a preoccupation with internet porn. The same can\u2019t be said about Marie, who in Julien\u2019s absence has become his opposite: serious, responsible, and deeply repressed. Written by showrunner Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Rosset and his sister Camille Rosset.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][mk_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/www.theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/irresponsable.jpg&#8221; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; margin_bottom=&#8221;20&#8243;][mk_image heading_title=&#8221;In association with&#8221; src=&#8221;http:\/\/dev.theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/titrafilm-130.jpg&#8221; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; margin_bottom=&#8221;20&#8243;][mk_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/www.theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/100-distribution.jpg&#8221; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; margin_bottom=&#8221;20&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][mk_padding_divider size=&#8221;20&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1518134100301{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;] BEAUTIFUL LOSER \/ Irresponsable \u00a0 [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1518134140613{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;]U.S. Premiere\u00a0\u2022 TV Series \u2022 Comedy \u2022 France, 2017 Blu-ray \u2022 Color \u2022 Season 1 \u2022 10 x 26 min \u2022 Episodes 1, 2, 3 &amp; 4 Creator &amp; Showrunner: Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Rosset Directed by: Stephen Cafiero Produced by: Antoine Szymalka (Tetra [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":628,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1243","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1243","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1243"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1243\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2577,"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1243\/revisions\/2577"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1243"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
