Synopsis
Love at Second Sight (Mon Inconnue, 2019) is a French fantasy romance from director Hugo Gélin that you can watch online on iFILM. One ordinary morning, novelist Raphaël wakes into a world where he never wrote a word, teaches school for a living, and his wife Olivia is a famous concert pianist who has no idea he exists.
The cruelty of it is precise. He remembers every shared night, every fight, every reconciliation; to her, he is a complete stranger. To claw his way back to the life he lost, he has to make the woman he spent years with fall for him all over again, starting from nothing, with none of their history to lean on. His one ally is best friend Félix (Benjamin Lavernhe), the only person who half-believes the absurd thing happening to him.
Gélin takes a well-worn alternate-reality premise and pulls something genuinely tender out of it: love isn't a given, it's a choice you keep making. A bittersweet charmer for anyone tired of paint-by-numbers rom-coms. Stream Love at Second Sight (2019) online on iFILM.
