His father Claude Berri is Jewish, and his mother Anne-Marie Rassam, who was born in Lebanon, is Lebanese Christian.[1][2][3] On his mother's side, he was the nephew of producer Jean-Pierre Rassam and Paul Rassam. His mother, Anne-Marie Rassam, committed suicide in 1997, jumping from the apartment of Isabelle Adjani's mother.[4]
