Preceded by an optional dinner reception at 6:00 PM at the theater featuring Provencal cuisine. Tickets must be reserved by March 16, no exceptions (movie tickets must be purchased separately).
In the once bustling port town of La Ciotat on the Mediterranean a group of young writers with different backgrounds are trying to reflect the town’s current situation in their group written thriller. Yet the hostility and disturbing vision of one participant soon alarms his peers and the instructor, who is a famous Parisian thriller writer. A stunningly authentic portrait of French youth today, including their class and racial beliefs, as well as their occupational concerns.
Speaker: Odile Cazenove, Professor of French and Francophone Culture and Chair of the Romance Studies at Boston University.
