ANAÏS IN LOVE LES AMOURS D’ANAÏS

Fri 12 Aug 21:00 – Auditorium Sat 13 Aug 15:45 – Auditorium

Anaïs is 30, broke and has a lover she doesn’t think she loves anymore. She meets Daniel, who falls for her, but he lives with Emilie – whom Anaïs also falls for! Behind on rent and considering breaking up with her boyfriend, Anaïs (Anaïs Demoustier) doesn’t quite know what she wants from life. She wanders aimlessly – a free spirit with no sense of direction but capable of drawing attention wherever she goes. In comes Daniel (Denis Podalydès), an older publisher married to novelist Emilie (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) who takes a shine to Anaïs. Daniel explains to Anaïs how his relationship with Emilie began in an almost identical way to how their affair started. Anaïs becomes less enamoured with the sketchy older man and instead finds herself falling for Emilie. There is something unexpected about the way ‘Anaïs in Love’ pulls you in. Some movies just feel like spring; this is certainly one. A bright breezy romance bursting with energy. (Subtitles) FRANCE 2021 CHARLINE BOURGEOISTACQUET 98M

FRANCE

A celebrity journalist, juggling her busy career and personal life, has her life overturned by a freak car accident. Paris, today. France de Meurs (Léa Seydoux) is a star journalist running between a television set, a distant war and the hustle and bustle of her busy family life. Her frantic high-profile world is suddenly turned upside down after a traffic accident in which she injures a pedestrian. This unexpected intrusion of reality calls everything into question. As France attempts to slow down and retreat into a simple anonymous life, her fame continues to pursue her until a mystified love affair seems to put an end to her quest. With Blanche Gardin and Benjamin Biolay. (Subtitles) FRANCE 2021 BRUNO DUMONT 132M
