What A Missing Part Is About

A Missing Part features Romain Duris in his first screen role speaking Japanese: he worked with a coach for months, learning his lines phonetically first, traveled to Japan a week before filming to adjust to the language and culture, and tried to keep his daily life in Japanese throughout the shoot. The film had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 9, 2024. Who it's for: anyone curious about a French actor's effort to perform entirely in a foreign language, in a parenting drama set in Tokyo. Who it's not for: viewers wanting a light, conflict free family film, since this centers on the pain of prolonged separation.
