4 Days in France
The debut from filmmaker Jérôme Reybaud follows a man road-tripping through France with only Grindr, the gay social dating app, as company.
"In an unexpectedly tender fashion, 4 Days in France follows Pierre (Pascal Cervo) on a sentimental journey that lasts less than a week, starting on the day he wakes up and leaves his partner Paul (Arthur Igual), jumping behind the wheel of his Alfa Romeo to travel through France. With no particular destination in mind, Pierre relies on Grindr to arrange his ‘liaisons’ along the way but, unbeknownst to him, Paul is also using the app to keep track of Pierre’s movements. After four days and nights of random hookups– sexual and otherwise – will the two find each other again?" (Alliance Française)

The New York Times
While Mr. Reybaud has exemplary artistic confidence and an interesting vision, this is a movie that in many ways defines or justifies the "not for everybody" critical hedge.

Los Angeles Times
Writer-director Jérôme Reybaud has crafted an assured film for his narrative-feature debut. "4 Days in France" has a strong vision, even as its protagonist simply wanders across France.

What the film does offer is gorgeous shots of the French countryside and an idea of how different gay men navigate present-day life in France.
