The Kid with a Bike

The most hopeful and uplifting film by the Dardenne brothers.

A 12-year-old boy is placed in a care home by his own father, yet he remains determined to find him and rebuild their relationship. In search of his dad, he rides through the city on his bicycle — something he almost never parts with, as it becomes an extension of both his body and his resolve. By chance, the restless boy meets a hairdresser who becomes deeply invested in his fate.
