My Old Lady

Mathias Gold, a struggling New Yorker, inherits an elegant Parisian apartment from his estranged father and intends to sell it for a fresh start. Upon arrival in the French capital, however, he encounters an unexpected obstacle: an indomitable Englishwoman named Mathilde Girard resides in the flat with her daughter Chloé, refusing to leave without a fight. Unbeknownst to Mathias, this particular apartment is a viager - an archaic French real estate contract where the purchaser pays monthly installments to the tenant until their passing. Navigating the complex nuances of this antiquated system and forging an unlikely alliance with Mathilde, Mathias embarks on a journey that forces him to confront his past, reevaluate his priorities, and ultimately unearths hidden layers of humanity amidst the city's romantic backdrop.
