Recipient of the "Jury Prize Award" from the Director's Guild of America, RÉMY tells the story of Manu, an apathetic twenty-three year old expatriate with a love for soccer, who spends his days goofing around with his aimless buddies. But when his girlfriend breaks up with him, and he encounters a pair of homosexuals that triggers memories from an uncomfortable past, Manu loses his cool... He ends up losing a lot more in the process.

In mid-1990s America, we follow the tragic sex life of Jolie Jolson, a wannabe thug (and great-great-grandson of legendary vaudevillian Al Jolson) in suburban Washington as he strives to become something he can never be – black.
