Christophe Honore further makes a case as one of the most exciting filmmakers of our generation with the exuberant and tender Love Songs. A modern day musical told through unforgettable songs sung entirely by the cast.

In the hope of sparking their stalled relationship, Ismael (Louis Garrell) and Julie (Ludvine Sagnier) enter a playful yet emotionally laced threesome with Alice. When tragedy strikes, these young Parisians are forced to deal with the fragility of life and love. For Ismael, this means negotiating through the advances of Julie's sister (Chiara Mastroianni) and a young college student (Gregoire Leprince-Ringue); one of which may offer him redemption.
