Albrecht Schuch, Jella Haase, Annabelle Mandeng, Joachim Król also star. 183 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack German; Subtitles English; theatrical trailer. In German with English subtitles.

Like the '60s-era South Paris housing project where he's spent his whole life, teen Youri (Alséni Bathily) was named after cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin... and harbored his own dreams of reaching the stars.

Affecting effort co-stars Lyna Khoudri, Jamil McCraven, Finnegan Oldfield, Denis Lavant. 98 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack French; Subtitles English; theatrical trailers. In French with English subtitles.
