That's "Tirez Le Pianiste" to you, buddy.

I just watched it. Au Revoir kind of reminds me of Before Sunrise as well. It's the same story of aimless young people wandering around an interesting city where at the end of the day nothing is really resolved but they are brought slightly closer to self discovery. Well done! I really look forward to your next movie.
