  • Location: Quad CInema
  • Description:

    Cohen Media Group is proud to announce the release of HEAL THE LIVING, rising French director Katell Quillévéré’s deeply affecting study of human interconnectedness. Written by Quillévéré and frequent André Téchiné collaborator Gilles Taurand (Thieves, Wild Reeds), HEAL THE LIVING’s César-nominated screenplay is based on Maylis de Kerangal’s internationally acclaimed novel The Heart, and is scheduled to open in New York on April 14 at the Quad Cinema followed by a national roll out.

  • CinéSalon - Struggle for Life

  • May 9, 2017 from 3:30pm to 6:00pm
  • Location: FIAF Florence Gould Hall
  • Description:

    Part of CinéSalon series Liberté, Egalité, Fantasy: French Politics on Film

    When bumbling Marc Chataîgne snags an internship with the French Ministry of Normativity, his hopes are high. Then he gets sent to French Guiana to oversee an indoor ski slope…and gets lost in the jungle. Luckily, his guide is a fellow intern as charming as she is deft with a machete, and what started out as an uproarious sendup of French bureaucracy turns into a delightfully kooky adventure-romance. Starring “it” actors Vincent Macaigne and Vimala Pons, this is that rare comedy to seamlessly blend caustic wit, goofy sight gags, and breathless romanticism. 

    “A powerful libertarian eroticism and political sensuality that today only Guiraudie and a few others can claim as well.”—Le Cahiers du Cinéma
