Suite Armoricaine, directed by Pascale Breton (2015).
French movie with English subtitle presented by the Film Society of Lincoln Center and The Museum of Modern Art at the 45th annual New Directors/New Films program.
Synopsis: Françoise (played by Valérie Dréville), an accomplished art historian, leaves Paris to teach at her alma mater in Rennes. Most of her former schoolmates never left town, it turns out, and are curiously eyeing her return. Meanwhile, Ion (Kaou Langoët), a sensitive geography student, falls in love with the blind Lydie (Manon Evenat), and clashes with his estranged, now-homeless mother, Moon (Elina Löwensohn), one of Françoise’s closest friends from the old punk-rock days…
As these idiosyncratic, richly drawn characters intersect, their points of view overlap and the tricks of time and memory become apparent. Bursting with ideas and emotion, Suite Armoricaine is a work of symphonic scope and grand themes (love and death, art and beauty, language and music) that finds deep wells of meaning in the smallest and most surprising details and gestures.
Duration: 148 minutes.

Suite Armoricaine, dirigé par Pascale Breton (2015).
Film en Version Originale sous-titré français présenté par la Film Society of Lincoln Center et The Museum of Modern Art pour la 45ème édition du festival New Directors/New Films.
Synopsis: Il y a Françoise, qui revient à Rennes pour enseigner l’histoire de l’art à la fac, longtemps après y avoir commencé ses études. Il y a Ion, surgi de nulle part à la rentrée pour étudier la géographie. Il y a aussi Moon, la mère de Ion, dont par honte il prétend qu’elle est morte. Lydie, l’étudiante aveugle dont il est tombé amoureux. Il y a le rock, qui est plus fort que l’oubli, John qui n’a jamais cessé d’en faire, et les amis de Françoise de la grande époque qui n’ont pas cessé d’en écouter. Encore plus loin, au commencement, il y a un ruisseau, que Françoise a rendu invisible dans sa mémoire, et qui attend d’être visité, tel un tableau dans un musée.
Durée: 148 minutes
