And Now My Love is a 1974 French-Italian movie directed by Claude Lelouch. The heart of the film is the "road movie" of father and daughter, as Simon transforms himself from a small-time schemer into a creative man. Over three generations, the twisted paths of fate during the 20th century seem to have one specific goal in mind: after her grandfather was one of the film pioneers of the century as a cameraman and her father survived a concentration camp during the Second World War, the wealthy Jewish heiress Sarah finally recognizes the successful advertising filmmaker Simon as the man of her life during a flight to New York in the 1970s.
