A woman travels to Paris with an unusual mission in Fiona Gordon and Dominique Abel’s latest offering, “Lost in Paris.” A U.S. trailer has dropped for the whimsical comedy, which centers on Fiona (Gordon), who decides to hop on a plane and visit Paris for the first time after receiving a letter from her Aunt Martha (Emmanuelle Riva). The spot shows Martha penning the note under duress. She explains, “After 48 years living in Paris they want me to move to an old people’s home. Ridiculous. I’m only 88!” So Fiona goes to Paris to see what she can do to help, only to encounter an unexpected problem: Martha has disappeared.
The trailer features lots of physical comedy, including a memorable bit where Fiona, posing for a picture, ends up falling off a bridge. We also catch glimpses of what Martha is up to.
Gordon and Abel’s previous credits include “The Fairy” and “Rumba.”
Riva passed away earlier this year. She received an Oscar nod in 2013 for “Amour” at the age of 85. She remains the oldest-ever nominee for Best Actress.
“Lost in Paris” opens in select theaters June 16.
