He Even Has Your Eyes

The family comedy He Even Has Your Eyes (Il a déjà tes yeux, 2017) is ready to watch online on iFILM. Paul and Sali are a Black French couple who have wanted a child for years with no luck. Then the call they've been praying for arrives: their adoption file has been approved. Baby Benjamin is six months old and utterly adorable. He's also blond, blue-eyed and white.

From that mismatch the film spins a warm comedy of errors out of a very real question. A skeptical caseworker keeps a close eye on the new parents, relatives whisper, and Paul swings between bursting pride and quiet panic under the stares at the playground. Director Lucien Jean-Baptiste casts himself in the lead, alongside Aïssa Maïga as Sali and Zabou Breitman. The movie pokes at racial prejudice through laughter and family squabbles rather than lectures — perfect for fans of French comedies that hide a kind, sharp point behind the jokes.
