The Witnesses | More… |
| Les témoins, André Téchiné, France 2007, 35mm (R16 sex scenes) | ||
“A fast-moving, engrossing multiple-character drama that brings the AIDS crisis of the 1980s into laser focus… Despite its grim subject, the powerful storytelling projects the strongly affirmative message that it’s a miracle to be alive and bear witness to those who did not survive.” – Variety |

Heartbeat Detector | More… |
| La question humaine, Nicolas Klotz, France 2007, 35mm (M offensive language, content may disturb) | ||
| “It’s a thin line between 20th-century Nazism and 21st-century corporate culture in Nicolas Klotz’s rewardingly chilly psychological thriller. Mathieu Amalric plays a staff shrink investigating the unstable behaviour of a company director.” – Entertainment Weekly | ||
|
||
 |
La France | More… |
| Serge Bozon, France 2007, 35mm (M violence, nudity) | ||
| Serge Bozon’s elegantly assured debut mixes genres – period romance, war movie and musical – to confoundingly pleasurable effect. “A heady experiment full of soul… This is something new, not to be missed.” – Village Voice | ||
|
| French Revelations |
Heartbeat Detector,
La France and The Witnesses are presented with the
support of the Embassy

OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies | More… |
| OSS 117: Le Caire, nid d'espions, Michel Hazanavicius, France 2006, DV (M offensive language, sexual references) | ||
| Fabled French special agent OSS 117 aka Bonisseur de la Bath, introduces his unique mix of espionage and incompetence in this hilariously straight-faced spy movie spoof which plays less like an Austin Powers farce than a lost relic from a sadly deluded time. | ||
