CGiii Comment

A fragile bond is formed between Jérémie and Baptiste thanks to a shared source of embarassement: their baldness. Together, they decide to go to Istanbul, a modern metropolis known for low-cost cosmetic miracles and surgical scams. Yet, at its core, Avant/Après tells the story of other losses, touching on the wandering nature of humans and the need for connection to ward off loneliness.

This disconcerting, unadorned film requires an open mind and a willingness to be moved by a quest for connection and embrace.
