A family goes on a summer road trip through France with their bicycles in tow, until one beloved tricycle falls off the car and finds itself on a new adventure: searching for its owner. Détour was filmed on an iPhone 7 Plus by Oscar-winning director Michel Gondry. From Partizan:
Détour is a lively celebration of French summer inspired by the works of Jaques Tati and Albert Lamorisse, among others, to pay homage to French cinematic history and culture.
