Ici et là-bas TF1 Séries Films broadcast, Digi Mart USA News: TF1 Séries Films will broadcast the French comedy “Ici et là-bas” on Wednesday, November 11, at 9:10 p.m. The film was directed by Ludovic Bernard and is described as a tender and funny road movie carried by Ahmed Sylla, moving between two countries and two ways of life.

Adrien, played by Sylla, lives peacefully in Senegal with his wife when an administrative problem forces him to return temporarily to France. The brief setback soon disrupts his well-established daily routine.

In Paris, Adrien stays with Sékou, a cousin of his partner. A resourceful and colorful salesman, Sékou pulls him unwillingly into a journey across the French provinces, filled with encounters and unexpected situations.

The contrast between the two characters and their cultures drives the film’s comic engine.

The cast also includes Hugo Becker, Luiza Benaïssa and Annelise Hesme. Hakim Jemili brings energy and a gift for improvisation to his role, forming a contrasting and engaging duo with Sylla.

Beneath its humor, the film touches on current themes, including expatriation, connection to one’s origins, administrative hassles and family. Director Ludovic Bernard, known for popular comedies, adopts a warm and accessible tone in the tradition of French family cinema.

The broadcast is scheduled for Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at 9:10 p.m. on TF1 Séries Films in the prime-time cinema slot, and the film was released in 2024.
