French Film The Lovers on the Bridge at OKCMOA

  • Screening in a dazzling new 4K restoration, this audacious, breathlessly romantic, Jean Vigo-inspired drama from French writer-director Leos Carax (Holy Motors) traces the relationship between a young painter with failing eyesight (Juliette Binoche) and a troubled street performer (Denis Lavant) living on Paris's Pont-Neuf bridge.

  • In French with English subtitles. (126 minutes)

  • “Leos Carax’s delirious saga of l’amour fou burns with an intoxicating stylistic freedom as it traces the highs and lows of the passionate relationship that develops between a homeless artist (Juliette Binoche) who is losing her sight and a troubled, alcoholic street performer (Denis Lavant) living on Paris’s famed Pont-Neuf bridge. Capturing their romantic abandon with a giddy expressionist energy—especially in a wild dance sequence set against an explosion of fireworks— this whirlwind love story is an exhilarating journey through a relationship that confirmed Carax’s status as one of the leading lights of the post–New Wave French cinema.” – Janus Films

Film Souleymane’s Story at OKCMOA

  • In Boris Lojkine’s moving and immersive César Award-winning drama, an undocumented Guinean immigrant in Paris (Abou Sangaré, winner of the Un Certain Regard Best Actor prize at Cannes) juggles his responsibilities as a food delivery bike courier with preparations for a high-stakes asylum interview.

  • In French, Fulah, and Malinka with English subtitles. (94 minutes)

  • “Stylistically inspired in part by Cristian Mungiu’s 2007 Cannes winner 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days, Lojkine’s bracing, artful realism offers an equally affecting account of a migrant laborer’s experience finding himself caught up in the mechanisms of an uncaring and unforgiving society. Shooting on city streets with concealed cameras, Lojkine creates a simultaneously pulse-pounding and heartrending view of contemporary Parisian life. Winner of three Cannes Film Festival prizes and four César Awards.” -Rendez-Vous with French Cinema
