Declaration of War

Romeo and Juliette are two young actors. They fall in love at first sight, move in together and make a baby. A love story and the founding of a home like millions of others. Except that their little boy, Adam, behaves abnormally. The young parents try hard to persuade themselves that everything is okay but, with the passing of time, they cannot delude themselves anymore: their son has problem. Their fears are unfortunately confirmed: Adam suffers from a malignant brain tumor. From now on, war is declared. A war against illness. A war against Death. A war against despair. A powerful and life-affirming story based on real-life events experienced by filmmaker Valerie Donzelli and co-star/writer Jeremie Elkaim.
