Institut Francais Presents:
Incendies
A Film by Denis Villeneuve
History can often hide the truth about a family's past - left with two envelopes and a mother’s dying wish, Jeanne and Simon are charged with finding a father they believed dead and brother they knew nothing of. Oscar nominated Incendies is a journey to the Middle East and a generation into the past. Selected to open the Human Rights Watch Festival, Incendies is not just a stunning piece of cinematography, the storyline packs punches, and together the film is utterly memorising and truly unforgettable.
Dir. Denis Villeneuve, with Lubna Azabal, Melissa Desormeaux-Poulin, Maxim Gaudette, Remy Girard | 131mins | 2010 | Canada | cert. 15 | in French with English subtitles
