Review your classics or discover the contemporary French and French speaking cinematography in thematic series starting by "Love à la française" Love is universal and timeless, beyond the borders, cultures, generations etc... Actually, France is internationally considered as the country of love and Paris has always inspired romantic stories in novels and movies. It's not a coincidence that the word "romance" is French. Thus, our first French Cinema cycle had to be about love ! The movies presented in this cycle have different genre (independent or commercial) and have been produced in different times (from 1958 to 2008), but all of them talk about the same subject: LOVE.
	Qui m’aime me suive (2006) more Directed by Benoît Cohen. With Mathieu Demy, Eleonore Pourriat, Julie Depardieu, Romane Bohringer. Follow me if you love me. This typical French expression was first used by King Philippe VI de Valois to enhance the braveness of his coward barons and have them involved in a bloody battle. Thus, we’re running through a disaster in this movie. Tuesday, September 27 @ Alliance française Miami Boy meets girl (1984) more Directed by Leo Carax.
