Film Synopsis

One summer, Lawrence is badly shaken by the news that his partner Sacha has suddenly died.  She was just thirty years old when she expired on her way to see him one hot day in Berlin.  Sacha's untimely departure provides Lawrence with an opportunity to get to know her family, in particular her sister Zoé, who is married and has a small child.  A year later, Lawrence and Zoé meet up in Paris, neither having yet come to terms with their bereavement.  When they part, they promise to remain in contact with one another.  The next year, Zoé pays Lawrence a visit at his new home in New York.  By now the grief is starting to ease and they are both beginning to move on and form new relationships, but the pain still lingers...

The very best fantasy films in French cinema
sb-img-30
Whilst the horror genre is under-represented in French cinema, there are still a fair number of weird and wonderful forays into the realms of fantasy.
The greatest French Films of all time
sb-img-4
With so many great films to choose from, it's nigh on impossible to compile a short-list of the best 15 French films of all time - but here's our feeble attempt to do just that.
The best French Films of the 1910s
sb-img-2
In the 1910s, French cinema led the way with a new industry which actively encouraged innovation. From the serials of Louis Feuillade to the first auteur pieces of Abel Gance, this decade is rich in cinematic marvels.
The best of Indian cinema
sb-img-22
Forget Bollywood, the best of India's cinema is to be found elsewhere, most notably in the extraordinary work of Satyajit Ray.
The best French war films ever made
sb-img-6
For a nation that was badly scarred by both World Wars, is it so surprising that some of the most profound and poignant war films were made in France?
