Pangbourne Twinning French Film - 'Souvenir'
Souvenir (Souvenir) (2016)
A film by Bavo Defurne.
In 1974, Liliane (stage name ‘Laura’) was France’s entry into the Eurovision Song Contest, which was won by Abba.
Today, she works anonymously in a pâté factory (amusingly, and as an aside, our twin town of Houdan is well known for its pâté!). Her work is dull, but then she meets Jean, a curious and aspiring young boxer, and her dreary life is transformed as he challenges her to make a remarkable career revival.
She is tempted to relive her brush with fame.
This is a fictional love story and ‘feel good’ film with music, also described as ‘a bittersweet soufflé of a movie’ by Metro magazine.
It stars Isabelle Huppert and Kevin Azais.
Duration 87 minutes, in French with English subtitles.
BBFC classification 12 (moderate sex, language, violence).
