France, 2009.
96 mins. French with English subtitles.
Q&A session with filmmaker Denis Dercourt after Friday 23 Sep screening at 5:45pm
Denis Dercourt presents his follow-up to the UK arthouse THE PAGE TURNER, again drawing his inspiration from classical music (he also teaches music at the Conservatoire de Strasbourg). In his latest film, Napoleonic France looms large. Mathieu is a virtuoso pianist who goes home to care for his sick mother. He walks into a world of historical re-enactments and dressing in character. At a weekend event for enthusiasts, the stakes are raised to the highest levels, and Dercourt is on top form with the thoroughly engaging tale that unfolds. Tense, dramatic and precisely timed, TOMORROW AT DAWN played in Un Certain Regard at the Cannes Film Festival.
