What happens

A Prince (French: Un prince) is a 2023 French drama film directed by Pierre Creton. The film centres on Pierre-Joseph (played by Antoine Pirotte in youth and by Creton himself in adulthood), a young man who takes a job as an apprentice gardener under the tutelage of Adrien (Pierre Barray) and Alberto (Vincent Barré), with the three men later becoming lovers in a throuple. The film features only limited direct dialogue among the main cast, with much of its dramatic exposition instead narrated in voice-over by actors Mathieu Amalric, Françoise Lebrun and Grégory Gadebois.
