Best known to American audiences as Hervé, the frantic agency assistant in the hit Netflix series Call My Agent!, actor Nicolas Maury moves behind the camera, directing, co-writing, and starring in this coming-of-age dramedy, My Best Part. Here, he plays hypersensitive Jérémie, a struggling actor going through an existential crisis. Pathologically jealous and plagued by romantic, professional, and familial misadventures, he flees Paris to reset in the country with his mother (Nathalie Baye) – who turns out to be more than a little invasive. Droll, kooky, and often touching, Maury's stand-out directorial debut premiered at the Cannes Film Festival to notable acclaim.
