☞ DETAILS:
Chris Marker and Pierre Lhomme take viewers back in time with the French Documentary “Le Joli Mai”. By incorporating multiple interviews from various Parisian citizens, this documentary delivers daily life in France during the 1960s to viewers in a way that unpacks unfiltered opinions and thoughts about the political and cultural state of France in the past. This film is a must see for all new wave fans and Parisian lovers!
☞THE MOVIE:
A month in a town, May 1962, Paris is pictured by Chris Marker and his team, close to the pavement and the people’s faces. “In this first month of peace for seven year”, the Algerian war just ended with the Evian agreement, what are the Parisians doing, what are they thinking? War and politics? Everyone is avoiding the matters, the interviewer is surprised: why the French, who usually loves to discuss, are so muted? – Plot
“With Le Joli Mai, the result is a great and absorbing film that leaves a sordid taste of stifled rage, a frustration that doesn’t even dare to reveal its fury.” – The New Yorker
“Le Joli Mai captures the spirit of a populace at what was then the first quantifiable period of peacefulness in well over a generation.” – Slant Magazine

☞THE MOVIE:
When Suze Trappet learns at age 43 that she is seriously ill, she decides to go in search of the child she was forced to abandon when she was 15. Her administrative quest will bring her face to face with JB, a 50-year-old man in full burn-out, and Mr. Blin, a blind archivist of impressive enthusiasm. Together, the three of them embark on a quest as spectacular as it is improbable. – Synopsis
BYE BYE MORONS takes its inspiration directly from Terry Gilliam (BRAZIL), while gaining visual prowess and large screen effects: humanist, enjoyable and really fun. – Cinemania
Surely heavily influenced by Terry Gilliam’s Brazil (who makes his third Dupontel film cameo), Adieu shrouds its critiques and Dupontel’s perceived incompetence’s of French society – from its government and its bureaucracy, to its violent police force, blanket digital surveillance, anonymising architecture and dehumanising system – under the guise of a burlesque comedy. – The Curb

☞THE MOVIE:
Claire is a famous pianist whose life is managed by her husband Frederic, who also acts as her agent/coach/minder. For the sake of Claire’s career, both have decided not to have children; but Frederic changes his mind and tampers with her birth control pills so that she becomes pregnant. – Synopsis
« Foïs and Cohen’s relationship is “Énorme’s” triumph; they play each other’s foils wonderfully and naturally allow for the humour to come through » – Screen Queens
« Énorme bends expectations, genders and couple dynamics in unexpected, weird and tender ways. Claire rediscovers a body she has neglected and a sense of freedom. Frederic lives his wife’s pregnancy more than by proxy: gaining weight, attending courses for expectant moms and ‘feeling’ her pain. It’s in its most absurd moments that the film tackles womanhood the best. » IFFR

☞ DETAILS:
The University of Kent is proudly partnering with Lost in Frenchlation in the co-ordination of a film screening as part of their Paris Postgraduate Arts festival. Paris is among the world’s top tourist destinations, known as the City of Light. But it’s also a destination for refugees fleeing poverty and persecution. During the summer of 2016, filmmaker Hind Meddeb and her co-director Thim Naccache trained their cameras on an area unseen by most tourists, the community of refugees sleeping on the streets in the district named Stalingrad. Followed by a Q&A with the director!
☞THE MOVIES:
Summer 2016, Paris, refugees are camping in the Stalingrad district. The film follows their daily life and reveals a hidden part of the city, by the side of the invisible ones. A physical labyrinth added to the bureaucratic labyrinth already in place – the city turns away. Controls, round-ups, police raids, fencing. How can you live in a space that prevents you from existing? From out of the group, the camera follows Souleymane, a young refugee from Darfur, whose poems transfigure the violence of the situation. – Synopsis
« French director Hind Meddeb offers a humanist and committed documentary on the fate of homeless migrants trapped on the streets of Paris. » Cineuropa

A word from the festival: ‘Paris-Stalingrad’ offers a powerful insight into the truth behind modern day immigration and the hardships faced by those seeking to escape their circumstances and find refuge in Paris. It was the perfect choice for the festival’s core theme of Escapism, as it provides a multifaceted insight into the human rights struggles that exist for disenfranchised peoples on a global scale. It also provides an interesting and much needed comparison to the romanticised versions of escapism we explore in our other events. We want to use this screening to bring the due attention to ‘Paris-Stalingrad’, whose themes are particularly relevant during this time where immigration politics are at the forefront of many shifting political bodies across the globe.

For Father’s Day, join our special double bill followed by a Q&A about French & British comedies with screenwriter Aschlin Ditta! You will have the opportunity to answer one of the most pressing questions of our time: who looks better in swimming trunks, Rob Brydon or Mathieu Amalric? As the strange affair of these two synchronised films show, in Britain and in France, life, like the movies, can be a rough case of sink or swim…
☞THE MOVIES:
So, both films are about a male synchronised swimming team and, it turns out, both are based on a Swedish film that became a British documentary. Confused?
“We were in prep, getting close to shooting, when we heard about the French one,” says Oliver Parker, the director of ‘Swimming With Men.’ “It was a little bit of a worry, but we did quite like the idea that synchronised-swimming films could be synchronised!”
“Of course, the odd thing is that this is a very English type of movie. In fact, we don’t make films like this in France, you know, the social comedy, you’re the experts in it, so I took all my inspiration from your cinema.“ – Gilles Lellouche, director of ‘Le Grand Bain’.
Screenwriter Aschlin Ditta (author of ‘Swimming with Men’ and ‘French Film’, A comedy about how French and English cultures differ in their attitudes on relationships) will be there to answer all of your questions after the screening!

Alexandre is unemployed and his bank account has been frozen. His wife is on a two-month top secret nuclear submarine mission. While she’s away, he has to prove that he can take care of the children and find a job.

For French National Day, as part of MyFrenchFilmFestival Cannes Special Edition, join our virtual screening of ‘La Fille du 14 Juillet’!

From the Quinzaine, a summery dose of pure Frenchness.

Since Hector encountered Truquette at the Louvre on July 14th, he’s only had one thing in mind: to seduce this girl who he’s mad about. The best way to do so is to take her to the seaside. His pal Pator agrees wholeheartedly, particularly if she comes along with her friend Charlotte. – Synopsis
« With ricocheting references to France’s tradition of violent uprisings, Peretjatko gleefully unleashes the brazen energy of youth—on both sides of the camera. » – The New Yorker

Love, literature, and lost illusions.
This historical drama plays on all strings when it comes to capturing the writer Lucien’s life and dilemmas. The year is 1821 (exactly two centuries ago) and the mass-printed press has just started to gain a footing in France. It is especially driven forward by articles of intrigues and conflicts – articles that Lucien is great at providing. But are they all true? Illusions Perdues is based on the great novel series by Honoré de Balzac between 1837 and 1843.
☞THE MOVIE:
Young poet Lucien dreams about a great career of writing. One day he moves to the city and gets a job at a newspaper. He is good at it and soon celebrated for his stories. However, as a poet entering the field of journalism, he is constantly challenged by his desire to write dramatic and eye-catching stories for the press. But how much can poetry and journalism blend before it becomes fake news? – synopsis
“Lost Illusions provide a fun, provocative, hilarious, and at times even moving rags-to-riches tale with a protagonist and a setting we have not seen before” – Collider
“With its stellar performances, dramatic orchestral score and rich costume and set design, Illusions Perdues is a worthwhile, sweeping narrative of love, lust and literary ambition” – Hollywood Reporter

Initially struggling for inspiration, everything changes when Eiffel encounters a mysterious woman that he once knew many years ago.” – Synopsis
“An all-star cast that includes Romain Duris (The Spanish Apartment) as Eiffel and Emma Mackey (Netflix’s Sex Education) as Adrienne Bourgès, the woman from his past, lead this gorgeous historical film, inviting audiences to be swept away by the passion and brilliance behind the creation of France’s greatest cultural icon.” – Alliance Française Film Festival

A Good Man
2021-12-09 19:00 - 21:00 | Luminor Hôtel de Ville, 20, rue du temple, Paris, 75004, France
📹 Meet the director!
☞ SUMMARY:
🎞️FILM: ‘A Good Man’ directed by Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar (108 min)
🎬 DATE & TIME: Friday 9th of December, drinks at the cinema bar from 7PM, screening at 8PM, followed by a Q&A with the director!
📽️CINEMA: Luminor Hôtel de Ville, 20 Rue du Temple, 75004 Paris
🎟 TICKETS: €10 full price; €8 for students and all other concessions: https://www.luminor-hoteldeville.com/reserver/
☞ DETAILS:
What is a woman, a man, a mother, a father? Lately our conception of this has been challenged and changed. This film dares to take the touchy conversation a step further by asking: What if a trans father carries a baby? How will he perceive his own identity? And how will the people around him react?
‘A Good Man’ leaves the audience in deep thoughts and perhaps with unanswered questions. We are therefore happy to announce that the director, Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar, will be present after the film to answer these and share the thoughts behind the film.
☞THE MOVIE:
“When his girlfriend can’t get pregnant, trans man, Benjamin, decides to carry the child in her stead. Benjamin is still transitioning and getting pregnant is not without consequences. ‘You ask me questions, but I don’t have the answers. I don’t know where we’re going either. I don’t know how people will react, how I will react,’ he frames it quite precisely at one point in the film. Benjamin is beautifully played by Noémie Merlant (star of Portrait of a Lady on Fire).” – Synopsis
“An excellent script (…) and a remarkable performance from Noémie Merlant in the role of Benjamin, well supported by Soko” – Cineuropa
Watch the trailer with English subtitles here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU4l-2eP4Bc
☞THE PLAN:
We will be kicking the night off with drinks at the cinema’s bar from 7pm, followed by the screening of the movie at 8pm and the Q&A at 9:40pm. Tickets available online here: https://www.luminor-hoteldeville.com/reserver/ (please reserve early to avoid disappointment) ❗️Covid-19 era sanitary measures: compulsory health pass.
Get ready to meet a film director, who dares to ask fundamental questions about life and identity. You are in for an interesting film and conversation!
