À bicyclette! (2024)

A docu-fiction much in the style of the Trip films featuring Steve Coogan and Robert Brydon, this comedy is based on the real tragedy surrounding Mathias Mlekuz’s son Youri, who committed suicide in September of 2022. Mathias decides to embark on the same cycling journey Youri took from La Rochelle to Istanbul a few years before he passed. Mathias is joined by his dog Lucky and his good friend Philippe Rebbot as he goes through Youri’s travel journals to try and follow in his footsteps (or bike treads, as it were), maybe even encounter the same people as Youri, and share the emotions he felt as he traveled through Europe. One of the locals they meet is Adriane (Adrianna Gradziel), the strict landlady of an Airbnb who has to communicate with a translation app. Luckily she understands the universal language of skin and takes the men to a lake for some naked swimming, showing off all three Bs in the process! She's the hostess with the mostest... nudity! Five stars!
