Le Grand départ (2008)

Jean-Paul Cardin is a 53-year-old doctor who decides to leave his family behind to start a new life with Nathalie, a woman 25 years his junior. But what he believed would be his ticket to heavenly bliss quickly puts him on the road to hell. Can you really forget the past and start anew after turning 40? That's the big question this comedy-drama dares to ask and tries to answer. This film marks the debut of actor-writer Claude Meunier as a director.
