“Samuel was born from my own memories of childhood and adolescence in France, from something very intimate and personal. Knowing this story can now travel across the world through Netflix is very emotional for me. I hope the honesty at the heart of Samuel will resonate with audiences everywhere.”
– Émilie Tronche (Creator, Writer, Director)
