Tuesday 26 June – 6.30pm
Admission free
Come discover an
American French story at the Irish premiere screening of the award-winning
documentary Le Choix de Théo (2018). The film tells the story of
the French language in Louisiana and shows how state government has used
education to save their heritage language. The film brings awareness to
the American francophone reality/identity but also to the challenges
facing the American education system.
The screening
will be followed by a talk with French director Mikaël Espinasse
who lived in Lafayette, the heart of Cajun French Louisiana, where he worked
with French speaking communities (acadians, créoles, and indigenous) and
met key players in the rebirth of the French language in Louisiana:
teachers, activists, politicians, students and parents.

Filmmaker
Michael R Roskam, nominated for an Oscar for Bullhead, reteams
with lead actor, Matthias Schoenaerts, for a love story set in the
glamorous world of motor racing. He is Gigi, a violent bank robber
who falls for the charms of female racing driver Bibi, Adèle Exarchopoulos,
who has no idea that the new man in her life is a criminal.
Roskam’s intense, character-driven drama, which unfolds in three parts, is a
gritty tale of an unlikely romance with charismatic lead performances.
