Two famous actors - now a separated couple - receive a letter from their late son instructing them to reunite and complete a peculiar itinerary in Death Valley. Starring Gérard Depardieu and Isabelle Huppert. Selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
"Isabelle (Huppert) and Gérard (Depardieu) have a strange appointment in Death Valley, California. They have not seen each other for years and are here to answer to an invitation by their son Michael, a photographer, which they received after his suicide, six months ago. Despite the absurdity of the situation, they decide to follow the programme designed by Michael." (Cannes Film Festival)

"If there’s a certain momentousness to the onscreen reunion of Isabelle Huppert and Gerard Depardieu — 35 years after Maurice Pialat’s “Loulou” — everything else in Guillaume Nicloux’s cryptic curio “Valley of Love” works strenuously against any mounting sense of consequence."
