Impeccably staged and played, this scattershot reflection on the follies, glories and regrets of youth pays affectionate tribute to a world of handwritten letters and payphones that has all but disappeared.

The teenage Paul and Esther are played by Quentin Dolmaire and Lou Roy-Lecollinet – first-time actors, improbably. You can’t tear your eyes off them.

...et gammeldags melodrama om liderlighed forvandlet til lidenskab. Tilfældets bollevenskab bliver den umulige kærlighed.

What is My Golden Days about? Toggle content

My Golden Days tells the story of Paul Dédalus, an anthropologist who is preparing to leave Tajikistan but is stopped and interrogated at the airport in Paris due to a passport problem. As he recalls the memories of his youth, the film takes us on a journey through three defining periods of his life: his childhood in Roubaix, his trip to Russia where he lost his virginity, and his turbulent relationship with Esther, the love of his life. Through these flashbacks, we see Paul's struggles with his family, his friendships, and his studies, all of which shape his life and his passion for anthropology. Ultimately, My Golden Days is a poignant exploration of the human experience and the formative moments that make us who we are.
