The French Institute in Poland and Gutek Film invite you to the 16th edition of the New French Cinema Review, featuring several films presented at festivals in Cannes and Berlin. The programme includes several films presented at the festivals in Cannes and Berlin. The film is an adaptation of the award-winning novel by Christophe Boltanski, in which the history of his famous family (which included the artist Christian Boltanski) is intertwined with the turbulent history of France, Alain Guiraudie's MIZERICORDIA, chosen by the magazine Cahiers du cinéma as the best film of 2024, a confusing tale of complicated relations between the inhabitants of a small town, and Julien Colonna's OUR KINGDOM, in which a young girl (the excellent debutant Ghjuvanna Benedetti) has to find her place in the brutal reality of feuding Corsican clans. The closing film of the Cannes Film Critics' Week is also an interesting entry of the Review: "ANIMAL" Emma Benestan, a feminist western with thriller elements starring César Award-winner Oulaya Amamra.
