Grocer's Son, The

After his estranged, stubborn father (Daniel Duval) suffers a stroke in this picturesque, down-to-earth 2007 film, a grouchy French waiter (Nicolas Cazale) returns to the idyllic mountain village with a longtime friend (Clotilde Hesme) to help his mother (Jeanne Goupil) run their small grocery business by delivering groceries to the colorful, eclectic locals (Liliane Rovère, Benoît Giros, et al.) while he tries to reconnect with his depressed brother (Stéphan Guérin-Tillié) who is secretly separated from his wife (Ludmila Ruoso).
