Attila Marcel

In the whimsical 2013 French comedy film Attila Marcel, a young virtuoso pianist and fan of chouquettes lives under the watchful eyes of his two eccentric aunts in Paris. Raised mute since the age of two after witnessing his parents' tragic death, Paul's life is turned upside down when he discovers a record that leads him to an unconventional therapy with Mrs Proust, a neighbour who grows vegetables and plays the ukulele. As Paul unravels repressed memories from his childhood through herbal teas and madeleines, he learns to manage his relationships with music and Michelle, a young Chinese cellist. With its unique blend of drama, comedy, and music, Attila Marcel is a heartwarming tale of self-discovery that will leave you smiling long after the curtain falls.
