Twin brothers Quentin and Antoine escape from their father's bakery to attend the funeral of the mother they never knew. As they hitchhike towards Barcelona, old grudges between the two teenagers resurface. Antoine resents the friendships that his brother makes on the road, while sensitive Quentin is frustrated by his brother's jealous and possessive behaviour. Increasingly hostile, Antoine cruelly ditches Quentin but he soon realises that he can't make it to Spain without his brother by his side.

Inspired by various cult road films from the 70s, Give Me Your Hand is a wistful debut from one of France's most promising young directors.

Pascal-Alex Vincent's earlier films have caused a stir on the festival film circuit. I would love the opportunity to see his latest film "Give me you hand".
