Adieu Gary (also known as "Goodbye Gary Cooper)is a 2009 French film directed by Nassim Amaouche. This is the first feature-film director who was brought over to the International Week of criticism at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival and was awarded the Grand Prix.[2][3]
Plot
In the middle of a neglected French suburb, a family and close friends day-dream of life and love. In his debut feature writer/director Nassim Amaouche introduces the audience to their world, revealing the ties between the various characters, crafted by a brilliant French-Arab ensemble cast that includes Jean-Pierre Bacri, Dominique Reymond, Yasmine Belmadi and Alexandre Bonnin. The film evolves around conscientious Francis, his recently liberated ex-con son Samir, neighbour (and Francis' illicit lover) Maria and her imaginative son José - who deals with all this by escaping into a Wild West fantasy world where his father is a heroic cowboy played by Gary Cooper.
