"Belle Epine" film screening at Alliance Francaise De Delhi, 72, Lodhi Estate > 5:30pm & 7:30pm on 2nd March 2012
Time : 5.30 pm & 7.30 pm
Entry : Free (Seating on First-Come First-Served basis)
Event Details : 'Belle Epine' film screening.
“Adolescence is a good remembrance only for people who have a bad memory”, François Truffaut Fifteen days after the death of her mother, Prudence Friedman, an adolescent girl, tries to grieve and to emancipate. One of her friends, Maryline Santamaria will make the introvert Prudence run wild, by showing her the world of illegal races of bikers. But the story is not that important in Rebecca Zlotowski’s movie, resistant to any type of classical plot. Indeed a disturbing atmosphere prevails, with a singular way of capturing parts of reality. The action takes place at the end of the 1970s, in the depressed climate of the suburb around Rungis, filmed with a dense and electric photography. The young director is interested in reading the mind of her heroine, beyond all obvious opacity, and in guessing all her feelings: sadness, desire, temerity… Léa Seydoux is in almost every plan, with beauty and intensity.
Between neurosis and pure desire, Belle Epine is an interesting direction exercise, and reveals two talents, an actress and a director, who must be both followed.
Director : Rebecca Zlotowski
Year : 2010
Duration : 80 mins
Theme for the Month : From Jean Vigo and François Truffaut to Maurice Pialat or Jacques Doillon, the world of teenagers has been for a long time a favorite field of creation for French directors. In the context of our cycle of events entitled WOMEN!, and around the celebration of the International Women’s Day (8 March), our cine-club will project a series of contemporary movies about the difficulty of becoming a woman for adolescent girls, in a misunderstood period of discovery often associated with pain, giving attention to themes as sex and romance, power and empowerment, reality and absolute, etc.
