MUMBAI: Streaming just got a little more heart. After making waves at global festivals and breaking ground with its nuanced portrayal of disability, About Antoine is back with a second season now streaming on Netflix across the Americas and France. The award-winning dramedy, co-produced by Just For Laughs and distributed globally by Just For Entertainment Distribution, follows the story of Antoine, a poly-handicapped young man and the fierce, funny, and tender family who navigate life with him. What sets the show apart isn’t just the rare subject matter, but the way it balances authenticity with wit, and hardship with hope.
Now available in French and English, with Spanish and Portuguese subtitles, Season 2 continues to explore Antoine’s world with the same emotional candour that made it a festival darling. Think Banff Rockie 2025 nominee, MIPCOM Diversify TV Award winner, and Rose d’Or nominee, to name just a few of its accolades.
“This is more than just a show, it’s a message in motion,” said Just For Laughs chief marketing officer Alex Avon. “With Netflix on board, we’re thrilled to bring About Antoine to even more people, reminding audiences everywhere what it means to triumph in everyday life.”
Season 2 deepens the show’s emotional resonance, portraying the complexities of care, love, and family with warmth and unexpected humour. It’s storytelling that doesn’t shy away from struggle but always finds the spark in the story.
For anyone looking to stream something meaningful, moving, and still manage a few belly laughs About Antoine just might be the feel-good binge of the season.
