De Grandes Espérances: dir Sylvain Desclou (2022)

The regular Alliance Française ciné-apéro evening (a glass of wine and canapés before the screening) this month features Desclou’s psychological/political thriller; a young couple with political aspirations more or less accidentally kill a violent driver on a remote country road. Thereafter nothing will be the same for them ever again … but maybe not in the way you’d expect. In French with English subtitles. (AF members pay AED 35, the rest of us AED 45.)
