Reinventing Marvin

A young man leaves home to express his identity through acting in this coming-of-age drama from Anne Fontaine (The Innocents).

“Martin Clément, born Marvin Bijou, escapes from his small village in the Vosges Mountains, leaving behind the intolerance and rejection he suffers from his peers and his family. It is his high school teacher who offers him a way out when discovering his talent for theatre. Moving to Paris, he finds solace in the performing arts where he is able to freely explore his personal identity. Soon Martin is willing to risk everything to craft a stage show that represents so much more than success: it’s his path to reinvention.” (French Film Festival)
