Before Sunset

What if you had a second chance with the one that got away?

200480 min7.8 / 10

A tender, melancholic reunion between two soulmates who reconnect after nine years, walking through Paris while grappling with unresolved love and the weight of their separate lives.

Nine years later, Jesse travels across Europe giving readings from a book he wrote about the night he spent in Vienna with Celine. After his reading in Paris, Celine finds him, and they spend part of the day together before Jesse has to again leave for a flight. They are both in relationships now, and Jesse has a son, but as their strong feelings for each other start to return, both confess a longing for more.
