🎥Join us for a free movie night this Tuesday night, a powerful tale of mentorship, courage, and second chances.

🎞️Comme Un Fils
by Nicolas Boukhrief

Jacques Romand is a history teacher who has lost faith in his vocation. One evening, witnessing a shopkeeper attacked by three young robbers, he catches one of the aggressors – Victor, a 14-year-old Roma boy. Moved by his plight, Jacques becomes fascinated by this “wild youth” who will, little by little, reawaken his passionate belief in education. Determined to allow him the opportunity of escaping his situation, he quickly comes into conflict with the pitiless laws of the boy’s community. Nicolas Boukhrief returns with a powerful social drama starring Vincent Lindon and tackling the too-long-ignored situation of the Roma people.

Join us for a free movie TOMORROW as we follow the unexpected friendship between Louis, a devoted funeral director, and Igor, a brilliant mind navigating life differently.

🎞️Presque
by Bernard Campan and Alexandre Jollien

Louis is the director of a funeral home. Sworn bachelor at 58 he devotes himself entirely to his job and can’t bring himself to retire. Igor is 40 years old, a sharp mind stuck in a disabled body. Cerebral palsy they call it. Fond of philosophy, his travel companions are Socrates, Spinoza and Nietzsche. He keeps himself well away from the world and knows nothing or very little about friendship, sexuality, and real encounters. In a coincidence that only happens in real life, the paths of Louis and Igor cross. They embark on a funeral car for an unconventional road-trip that will teach them to see beyond their own issues and rethink their lives.

🎥Join us for a free movie TONIGHT for an inspiring film that celebrates music, passion, and breaking barriers.

🎞️Divertimento
By Marie-Castile Mention-Schaar

Classical symphonic music is everything for 17-year-old Zahia Ziouani and her twin sister, Fettouma. Nevertheless, living in underprivileged Parisian suburbs in 1995 with their Algerian background, they struggle arduously to approach their dreams – becoming an orchestra conductor and a cellist. Driven by determination, passion, and courage, they create their own orchestra, Divertimento. It will be a game-changer. DIVERTIMENTO is inspired by the life of Zahia Ziouani, one of the few worldwide renown female conductors.

Join us TONIGHT at Cinema Tuesday, Sons Of Ramses, a powerful story of truth, childhood, and unexpected connections.

🎞️ Sons Of Ramses
by Clément Cogitore

In the multicultural Persian district of La Goutte d’Or, Ramses makes a living as a clairvoyant, scamming his clients into believing he can contact the dead. As he gets caught up with a gang of young and fearless boys who terrorize the locals, Ramses makes a troubling and tragic discovery on a construction site. Could there be some truth behind his fraudulent mysticism? Getting carried away on a fateful night, Ramses will come to develop a special bound with the street kids and confront the ghosts of his own childhood.
