Thanks for Coming (2026)
It shares its release window with Obsession, so expect the two fanbases to be reacting side by side.
The theatrical release lands May 14, 2026.
Filming as a way of life, living to shoot films
Alain is getting older. For years he has been filming his daily life: his partner Françoise, the people he meets, nature and animals, and life in all its splendour and cruelty. Having devoted his entire life to filmmaking, with the camera as an extension of his arm, he has observed the world with a poetic sense of authenticity and simplicity. Otherness, the approach of death, the power of life and the importance of others intertwine as he looks back on his life as a filmmaker and as a man, concealing nothing, and offering a vision of the universality of the human experience.
