p.Vice Author Profile Page says ...

The synopsis of the Desplechin makes it sound a lot like Kings & Queen... with practially the same cast, definitely something to be excited about.

Since you guys always challenge me to talk about something I actually like, in two words: Emmanuelle Devos. The most consistently interesting (and sexy) actresses I've seen in years.
