Quand on sera grand
Renaud Cohen
At thirty, Simon struggles with life and its problems. He is divided between his job as a journalist at the Tabac Magazine, his girlfriend Christine with whom is trying unsuccessfully to have a child, and his friends Fabrice, Léa and Roché. So far as his family is concerned, he has some scores to settle with his psychiatrist father, and he takes special care of his grandmother, who is growing senile and making life impossible for those around her. An encounter with Claire, his young, pregnant neighbour whose husband has left her, gives his existence an unexpected turn...

After obtaining a degree in sociology, Renaud Cohen spent two years in China from 1984 to 1986. Back in France, he continued his studies and was awarded degrees in both Chinese as well as film studies. He enrolled in the directing department of the Fémis in 1988. After making several documentaries about China (Porteurs d'ombres électriques (1993), Le maître des singes (1996) and Les petits pains du peuple (1999)), he directed Quand on sera grand, his first feature-length film, in 2000. Cohen was also, in 1997-1998, prize-winner in the directing department of the Villa Médicis in Rome.
