From January 11 to 24, a French film
festival will take place at Háskólabíó
movie theatre. For these two weeks, 11
movies will be screened, most of them
brand-new films that are testament to
the diversity in French filmmaking.
The programme includes: ‘Prom-
ise Me This,’ directed by Emir Kustu-
rica; the romantic comedy ‘2 Days in
Paris’; and Laurent Tirard’s ‘Molière’,
about the 16th-century playwright and
comedian Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, best
known by his stage name Molière. The
documentary ‘Terror’s Advocate’ will
also be shown; a film about the contro-
versial lawyer Jacques Vergès who has
become famous for defending some of
the world’s most brutal war criminals
and militants.
The opening film of the festival,
‘Persepolis’, is a flick for the whole fam-
ily to enjoy. The award winning animat-
ed movie is based on the acclaimed
autobiographical graphic novel of the
same name, written by Iranian author
Marjane Satrapi.
The festival is organised by Green
Light Films, Alliance Française and the
French embassy. For a complete sched-
ule and tickets see www.midi.is.
