From writing to image, the novelist Alice Zeniter takes the plunge for a first feature film

After winning the Goncourt prize for high school students in 2017 for the art of losing, Alice Zeniter launches into the cinema. His first feature film, before the collapse, produced with Benoît Volnais, will be released this Wednesday in theaters in France. We follow a thirty-year-old, resigned to not having children, and who sees his life turn upside down when he receives an anonymous pregnancy test and therefore fears that he has fathered a child, without wanting one.
