If You Saw His Heart

CrimeDrama86 min

Cast out by the tight-knit Roma community he once moved through, Daniel is a thief running on guilt, anger, and whatever work keeps him alive. Gael García Bernal is Daniel, drifting through the underbelly of France after the accidental death of his friend Costel, pulled toward petty crime even as he tries to imagine another way forward. Joan Chemla keeps close to a man who is frayed, impulsive, and never fully welcome anywhere, following his search for shelter, money, and some form of redemption through bars, back rooms, and uneasy encounters.
