Nice story about a little child (Mathilde) who runs away from home in Paris, where she lives with her mother, who is divorced from Mathildes father. Mathilde chases up her grandpa to 'escape' from an pension hospital searching for her grandma (Madelaine, who was the big love of the grandpa but was left from him as she had an affair with his best friend 30 years ago)
The child's mother looking for her daughter find both near the Spain border. She never saw her mother since she was 10, as her father never forgave Madelaine. Thus she realizes now what she has missed in her life and is going together with her daughter to a small Spanish village.
At the end both find Madelaine; but she is old and cannot remember or recognize anybody anymore.
Nice and emotional story told with humor and sensibility.
The statement is that you cannot get back forgiven possibilities in your life (without risking that it will be to late) as well as it is never to late trying to forgive people their mistakes.
Well acted from Sandrine Bonnaire, Claude Rich and -especially- Loisa Pili as little Mathilde
