SUMMARY:Dans la brume | Just a Breath Away: dir Daniel Roby (2018)
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Roby’s film has a Parisian couple whose daughter suffers from an incurable disease that forces her to live in a hermetically sealed glass bubble. Then a mysterious toxic fog begins to spread in the Parisian streets\, killing anyone who gets caught in it. The parents find shelter on the roof above the mist\, but the daughter is still in her bubble in the now fog-filled apartment … Her parents must now cope with the lack of food\, power\, and information\, but the bubble won’t hold forever so they also need an escape plan … \n\n\nThe film is well directed throughout and has some strong set pieces\, managing along the way to avoid most of the trite conventions of sci-fi or the usual survivalist story; the characters are sensible and likeable – Romain Duris\, Olga Kurylenko and Fantine Harduin are the leads – and the storyline builds to a strong climax. And is it a warning sign? Well\, the source of the toxic fog is never explained; Paris is a city that has seen an alarming increase in air pollution and toxicity rates over the past years. Make up your own mind. \n \n\n\nThis is the last film to be screened in the NAAS programme under the umbrella title Green Reel: Films for a Sustainable Future\, featuring independent films from around the world that focus on the environment and sustainability. NAAS is a collaboration between a number of cultural institutions in the UAE: the Goethe-Institut Gulf Region\, the Embassies of France in the United Arab Emirates\, the Embassy of Canada to the United Arab Emirates\, the Italian Cultural Institute of Abu Dhabi\, the Embassy of Switzerland to the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Bahrain\, and Alliance Française Dubai.

SUMMARY:Comedy Night @ Ting Irie
DESCRIPTION:“Hilarious live performances by up-and-coming stand-up comedians” at Ting Irie Abu Dhabi every other Tuesday (best to check their Instagram account @tingirieauh just to be sure). It’s hosted by Funeral Home Comedy; the Jamaican vibe is always great\, irrespective of whether the comedy is any good – and while there’s always going to be a hit or miss element\, experience suggests it’s been good most of the time so far. The admission price includes two free drinks\, and there’s usually a DJ set afterwards too.
