A gifted primary teacher living in the south of France, he knows how to bring their schoolwork alive for his pupils but never remains in the same job for more than a term. His unremarkable appearance masks cracks, even violence&#8230; When he is left unwittingly in charge of Mathias one weekend by the child\u2019s negligent father, the boy takes Baptiste to his mother Sandra, a dazzling but fragile woman who works on the beach near Montpellier. An erratic parent who longs to make amends, she welcomes Baptiste and her son into her bungalow. For one enchanted day, a powerful spell unites them, the beginnings of a family for those who do not have one. But it won\u2019t last. Sandra owes money and her creditors are moving in. She is forced to flee again. To help her, Baptiste must return to the roots of his life, and to the darkest, most painful secrets within him&#8230;&#8221;Three days, three places, three people&#8230; an equation that allows me to orchestrate a minor key\u00a0score that is all the more intense for being removed from giddy romance in favour of deeper,\u00a0subtler tones.\u00a0It&#8217;s a chance encounter, an unlikely crossing of paths that different social backgrounds would\u00a0seem to render incompatible.\u00a0&#8221;\u00a0 Nicole Garcia.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/cohenmedia.net\/product\/going-away\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch Now<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GOING AWAY | 2015\u00a0 &#8211; 95&#8242; &#8211; Drama \/ Romance &#8211; Co- Written by Jacques Fieschi, Nicole Garcia.
