Two is a Family
Omar Sy (The Intouchables) is living it up on the beaches of the Côte d’Azur when a former lover shows up and drops off the fruits of their tryst - his daughter - in this hit French comedy-drama. Based on the Mexican film Instructions Not Included.
"Incapable of looking after a baby, Samuel (Sy) rushes to the UK in an attempt to return the child to her mother, without any luck. He decides to stay in London and, after finding work as a TV stuntman, their relationship slowly begins to bloom. When his ex-lover eventually reappears, Gloria has grown into a bright and effervescent eight year old… and the inseparable father-daughter team finds their connections tested." (Alliance Française)

The film's first act is full of mixed messages that lead to an unsteady, fluctuating tone.
