About this Event

Join us for night five of the 5th edition of Voices of Francophone Cinema curated by Anna-Caroline Prost under the theme "Our Freedoms" in which we present Miséricordia, an unusual and surprisingly funny film from Alain Giraudie. Jérémie returns to his hometown for the funeral of his former boss, the village baker. He decides to stay for a few days with Martine, the man’s widow. A mysterious disappearance, a threatening neighbor and a priest with strange intentions make Jérémie’s short stay in the village take an unexpected turn.
