Directed by Jean-Louis Milesi

Comedy / Drama

Film Synopsis

"I am two years old and I don't know how to talk.  But I know how to say Papa.  I know several other things as well.  The only thing I do not understand is why my father boxes by himself in the bathroom.  Or why he plays with a revolver.  And, above all, why he doesn't like it when I call him Papa.  By the way, my name is Lino, as in Lino Ventura..."

sb-img-1
