We are starting a brand-new Mardi Cinéma cycle dedicated to Claude Sautet, one of France’s most beloved filmmakers, known for his subtle, intimate portrayals of human relationships and the complexity of everyday life.
To open this series, we’ll discover one of his most celebrated works: Les Choses de la vie (1970).
🎥 Les Choses de la vie
A poignant and beautifully crafted film starring Romy Schneider and Michel Piccoli. After a tragic car accident, architect Pierre reflects on his life, torn between his long-time companion and his new love. Through flashbacks and fragments of memory, Sautet explores themes of love, regret, and the fleeting nature of existence — a masterpiece of French cinema that remains timeless.
🎙️ Special Guest: An expert in cinema will join us to lead a discussion about the film.
