"La vie les aura tenus à distance... jusqu'à la mort. Dans cet émouvant court métrage, Claude Guilmain va à la rencontre d'un étranger : son frère. Un an après avoir vu André pour la dernière fois, le cinéaste l'avait retrouvé sur son lit de mort. Portrait d'un parfait inconnu retrace sur un ton intimiste la trop brève vie d'un homme souffrant d'alcoolisme, que le cancer a frappé juste au moment où il venait de se reprendre en mains. Grâce aux témoignages révélateurs d'un ami de jeunesse d'André et de son dernier compagnon de route, rencontré en cure de désintoxication, Claude Guilmain suit les traces de ce frère énigmatique qu'il n'aura jamais vraiment connu. Porté par une narration d'une grande beauté, Portrait d'un parfait inconnu rend un touchant hommage à un homme qui s'était perdu en cours de route, mais qui a eu la force de se ressaisir. Entre les images d'archives qui font revivre un jeune André souriant et le récit poétique de ses derniers moments, ce film doux-amer capture la fragilité d'une vie humaine, avec ses faillites et ses triomphes."

"In this moving short film, Guilmain meets his brother for the first time. A year later, they meet again as the brother is dying of cancer, just as he is getting himself back together after years of alcoholism."
