"You are the worst generation in the history of humanity!"

On the death of his wife Lucette, Antoine discovers what has left him a letter, and a dark secret. On a whim he goes then demand accountability from his former boss installed in Tuscany. To prevent him from making a big mistake, his lifelong friends, Peter and Mimile, go after him, carrying with them Sophie, the little girl Dantoine, 7 months pregnant, who took over the traveling theater of his grandmother, Theatre du Loup in Slip.

Coverage does not tempt me too much, and then I let myself be convinced by the many positive reviews. And I have done well, i really had a great time with this unusual road movie. Our three old Antoine, Pierre and Mimile, are irreverent and endearing antiheroes, all is rhythm, history is well balanced, the dialogue is often funny but there are also very moving passages, especially when our three former unionists share their memories. "The old furnace" is a beautiful story of friendship, amid class struggle, and i wait to see later (Volume 2 comes out October 24).
