France 24 film critic Lisa Nesselson and Richelle Harrison Plesse cast an eye over some of the standout movies hitting French cinema screens this week. Acclaimed Romanian director Christian Mungiu’s “Graduation” takes a hard look at grassroots corruption. The film, which shared the directing prize at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, sees a well-meaning father rig the system in a desperate bid to give his daughter a better life.
Also, Iranian arthouse darling Golshifteh Faharani mesmerises in “Go Home”. She plays a woman who returns to her Lebanese hometown after exile and embarks on a mission to solve a family mystery.
Meanwhile, French audiences are introduced to a remastered version of Brad Bird’s modern animated classic “The Iron Giant”.
Plus, we look back at the career of one of Hollywood’s “last living screen legends”, Kirk Douglas – the movie icon turns 100 this week.
