Join us at the Alliance Française for a Francophone movie night as we watch Divertimento, a captivating film directed by Marie-Castille Mention-Schaar, featuring a rising star of French cinema, Oulaya Amamra!Classical symphonic music is everything for 17-year-old Zahia Ziouani and her twin sister, Fettouma. Nevertheless, living in underprivileged Parisian suburbs in 1995 with their Algerian background, they struggle arduously to approach their dreams – becoming an orchestra conductor and a cellist. Driven by determination, passion, and courage, they create their own orchestra, Divertimento. It will be a game-changer. Divertimento is inspired by the life of Zahia Ziouani, one of the few worldwide renown female conductors.
Film will be shown in French with English subtitles.
This event will be open to the public free of charge! You can help support the continued presence of cultural programs which benefit our community. Please consider making a $10 donation towards this event and future projects when registering.
