A Taste of Ink

The 24-year-old Vincent has two big life passions: tattooing and singing in a rock band of the hardcore kind. He decorated his neck with the image of his father, with whom he has a complicated relationship. However, blood ties lose their importance when dad’s new paramour – equipped with Monia Chokri’s (“Heartbeats”) charming smile – invades Vincent’s life. Simon’s debut film already gets compared to the works of Xavier Dolan. Even though it tells a fairly simple story of leaving the familial nest, it surprises with its unorthodox approach towards its main characters and the intensity of emotions raging within them.
