This February 17, Lost in Frenchlation is bringing you a touch of summer from the beautiful Marseille with Dominique Cabrera’s ‘Corniche Kennedy’!
The Plan
We'll meet at 8pm at the Cinema to enjoy a cocktail (4,50€) which will give us chance to meet and talk before Houda Benyamina (the director) speaks about the film at 9pm with the screening starting shortly after.
The Movie
‘It’s summer in picturesque Corniche Kennedy, a well-off neighbourhood in Marseille, where a group of disaffected late teens have adopted the sea cliffs as their haunt. With a clear blue sky backdrop they somersault and dive their way through the summer. Marco, a slender, matt-skinned figure is a driver for a drug gang, while blond-haired, child-like Mehdi cares for his mother and imprisoned brother. Then, following an initiation rite, Suzanne (the luminous Lola Créton), a middle class girl, comes between them...’ - Synopsis
‘This is an exhilarating sun-kissed experience, a poetic account set against the ruggedness of nature, in equal measures beautiful and dangerous’ - Marie-Pierre Richard, Dublin French Film festival
