☞ DETAILS:
Best known for his moving 2019 dramedy ‘Les Invisibles,’ director Louis-Julien Petit is back and will join us for a screening of his new film, ‘La Brigade.’ The movie follows Cathy, a headstrong sous-chef whose life turns upside down when she starts working at a shelter for young migrants. Louis-Julien, whose impressive résumé also features work on American hits ‘Inception’ and ‘Inglorious Basterds,’ will answer all your burning questions at the Q&A after the movie.
☞THE MOVIE:
“Cathy is a stubborn 40-year-old sous chef. This year, she is finally about to fulfill her lifelong dream: opening her own gourmet restaurant. But nothing goes as planned. Facing serious financial difficulties, she reluctantly accepts a job in the cafeteria of a shelter for young migrants. While she hates her new position, Cathy’s skills and passion for cuisine start to change the kids’ lives. And they also have a lot to teach her…” — Synopsis
“We would have to invent a word to describe Louis-Julien Petit’s films, which are so steeped in humanity that they are without equal in the French cinematic landscape.” — In the Mood for Cinema
