Join us Thursday May 15th @6:00pm for the screening of "les algues vertes"
As usual, our doors open at 5:30pm for a social time in French (or not in French).

Green Tide is a French-Belgian drama thriller directed by Pierre Jolivet and released in 2023. It is adapted from the comic book Green Algae, the Forbidden Story, by Inès Léraud and Pierre Van Hove published in 2019.

After several suspicious deaths, the journalist Inès Léraud decided in 2015 to move to Brittany to investigate the phenomenon of green tides in more depth. She met many people, and realized the extent of the silence surrounding this environmental issue. Indeed, the interests of the agri-food industry are very strong in this region. It relies on the people involved in this fight locally to have it recognized at the national level through its radio reports.
All movies are in French subtitled in English!
