Paternal

Overview

In a quaint central French town, priest Simon leads a dedicated life for his parish until an unexpected reunion with Louise, a figure from his seminary past. She brings shocking news: Aloé, an 11-year-old boy, is his son. This revelation upends Simon’s existence, forcing him to confront a profound dilemma. Struggling to balance his commitment to the Church with newfound fatherly responsibilities, he embarks on a quest to persuade ecclesiastical authorities that his dual roles as a devoted priest and loving father can coexist harmoniously.
