Movies by Stéphane Robelin

Stéphane Robelin is a French filmmaker whose warm, humanistic approach to storytelling has made him a celebrated voice in international cinema. Robelin's films often explore themes of aging, interpersonal connections, and the complexities of modern life with a gentle, nuanced touch. In his breakout 2012 feature All Together, Robelin assembled an acclaimed ensemble cast to chronicle the intertwining lives of a group of septuagenarian friends facing the challenges of growing older. Robelin's sensitive direction and empathetic lens brought depth and authenticity to the film's portrait of friendship, mortality, and the resilience of the human spirit. This trademark blend of poignancy and humor has become a hallmark of Robelin's work, as evidenced by his most recent feature, 2017's Mr. Stein Goes Online. In that film, Robelin skillfully navigates the generation gap, using the story of an elderly man's tentative foray into the digital world to explore universal themes of connection, loneliness, and self-discovery. Throughout his career, Robelin has demonstrated a keen understanding of the human condition, crafting stories that are both specific in their details and universal in their resonance. With a filmography that also includes the acclaimed 2004 feature Real Movie, Robelin has established himself as a director of compassion and insight, offering audiences a refreshingly nuanced perspective on the joys and complexities of the human experience.
