Felix is a penniless dreamer whose wealthy father is dying. Meira is a Hasidic Jew, who is married and the mother of a child; she is also in search of novelty. They fall in love with each other. Felix and Meira is the story of an impossible love between two people who want to experience what they do not know, two people from two different communi-ties who are simultaneously closed and open in their ways and try to bridge their differences.

La gardeDrama/Sylvain Archambault/ 2014/ 97 minutes
