Description

Granny and Uncle Thomas have been watching The Young and the Restless (dubbed in French) every day since 1989. Filmmaker Benoît Grimalt returns for a recap of the episodes he's missed during his 20-year absence from Nice, and reconnects with relatives who raised him on a TV show that holds a certain family resemblance.
