Raised in a troublesome neighbourhood, local rebellious teenager Clotaire falls for his schoolmate Jackie, charmed by her fearless spirit and sharp wit. As powerful first love blossoms between the two, rampant gang violence entices him into a much darker path and ultimately destroys all they have built when he is charged with a crime he didn't commit. After many years apart, now leading profoundly different lives, the star-crossed lovers discover that every path they've taken leads them back together, but will love triumph over Clotaire's quest for revenge?

Nominated to the Palme d'Or of 2024 Cannes Festival, BEATING HEARTS captivates with its vibrant energy and bold ambition in the quest of the exploration of love and redemption. Supported by an impressively wide and talented cast, 2-time Cesar Award winner Adèle Exarchopoulos and 2019 Cannes Film Festival winner François Civil shine through the chaos and emotional resonance of this film, where beauty is found through its excessiveness.
