5.5/10
La Loi de Simon - Des hommes en noir
7.8/10
Murder In the Vercors
6.1/10
A shepherd is murdered in mountain pastures and most of the villagers suspect the former schoolteacher.
Black Ocean
5.4/10
Though its aftertitles detailing the history of French nuke experiments suggest otherwise, writer/director Marion Hänsel’s Black Ocean is not a political treatise or a history lesson, instead taking advantage of the remote, isolated environments in which the experimentation took place – as well as the monumental imagery of the act itself – in order to communicate a more universal story about the power of awe. Ocean principally follows three young sailors on a French naval vessel in 1972, who are on course for an unknown destination in order to help carry out the bomb tests they’ve yet to personally witness. The film is essentially divided into two parts: before and after the blast.
La promesse de l'eau
5/10
What Love Means
8.1/10
The movie, for the most part, charts the AIDS epidemic in France from 1980 – present through the microcosm of a family, but particularly through their gay son Nicolas, who narrates the story.
La Balade de Lucie
5.6/10
When her husband is arrested, all Lucie's bearings seem to crumble. To rebuild her life and give it new meaning, she entrusts her kids to her mother and isolates herself on the coast near Bordeaux. But the kids decide to go look for her.
Meurtres à Belle-Île
6.4/10
Meurtres dans le vercors
