The Son of Joseph

New York Film Festival Essentials • 1h 53m

Directed by Eugene Green • Arthouse • 2017 • France, Belgium • French with English subtitles
Starring Victor Ezenfis, Natacha Regnier, Fabrizio Rongione

The American-born expatriate filmmaker Eugene Green exists in his own special artistic orbit and his film "The Son of Joseph" is perhaps his most buoyant. A nativity story reboot that gently skewers French cultural pretensions, it features newcomer Victor Ezenfis as a discontented Parisian teenager in search of a father.
