Cinema: “It’s my man”, a romantic suspense at the end of the 14-18 war, will be released in theaters on February 5

Just after the war and the interminable wait, Julie finally has the hope of having found her missing husband, who has become amnesic. “It’s a kind of quest. Does she deeply think that he is her man and that he is the one she has been waiting for, or does she prefer to tell herself that it is him to avoid bereavement?asks Leïla Bekhti, who embodies the role of Julie.

“We don’t know who is manipulating or who is being manipulated”

The story gets complicated when a second woman also claims to be the missing man’s wife. The film is inspired by a true story of an amnesiac soldier. In 1918, after the war, hundreds of people claimed him as husband, father or brother. In the feature film, the question is which of the two women is his real wife. “There is one of the three people who does not tell the truth, and we do not know who is manipulating or who is being manipulated. It is also a film of romantic suspense“, comments Karim Leklou, who plays Julien / Victor.
