  • Colcoa-Press-2019-Part IV
    September 19, 2019 COLCOA French Film Festival Monday, September 23 – Saturday, September 28 DGA in Hollywood $$ This film festival showcases the latest work from France. It only looks like it the Coca Cola Film Festival if you read it too fast. September 3, 2019 Critic's Picks: A September To-Do List for Film Buffs in L.A Alain Delon in 'Purple Moon' (1960) A classic lesbian drama, French noirs starring Alain Delon and Jean Gabin and a series of matinees devoted to Katharine Hepburn are among the plentiful vintage and classic options for SoCal film buffs this month. OLIVIA AT THE LAEMMLE ROYAL | 11523 Santa Monica Blvd. Already underway and screening daily through Sept. 5 at the Laemmle Royal is a new digital restoration of Jacqueline Audry’s trailblazing 1951 feature Olivia, one of the first films, French or otherwise, to deal with female homosexuality. Set in a 19th-century Parisian finishing school for girls, the film depicts the struggle between two head mistresses (Edwige Feuillere and Simone Simon) for the affection of their students, and how one girl’s (Marie-Claire Olivia) romantic urges stir jealousy in the house. Audry, one of the key female filmmakers of post-World War II France, stages this feverish chamber drama (based on a novel by the English writer Dorothy Bussy) with a delicate yet incisive touch, allowing the story’s implicit sensuality to simmer ominously without boiling over into undue hysterics. Lesbian dramas would soon become more explicit, but few have matched Olivia’s unique combination of elegance and eroticism.

    The Story LOGLINE A little girl escapes deportation by becoming a mermaid SHORT SYNOPSIS After an immigration raid in their apartment building, a group of boys help an undocumented girl get to the beach to reunite with her family, unaware of that their new friend has a magical secret that will change their lives forever. LONG SYNOPSIS Día de las Carpas is a fantasy-adventure film told from the point of view of JONATHAN, a young boy who starts the day just wanting to go to see a giant carp that’s been caught at the pier. But after witnessing an immigration raid, Jonathan and his friends find their undocumented neighbor ESME hiding and decide to help her evade ICE agents to get to the beach where she’ll reunite with her family. However, Jonathan puts his fishing mentor, BIG SERG, who has promised to take the boys to the beach, in danger since Serg used to run the streets and doesn’t want to get in trouble with authorities again. They all race towards the pier where Esme hides again, but this time inside the giant carp itself, which magically comes alive and jumps into the ocean. In a final miracle, Esme transforms into a mermaid and meets the rest of her mermaid family who have been waiting for her. By going on this journey, Jonathan also transforms himself from a hesitant boy into a young man willing to take a stand. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT As a child, I spent my most of time lost in my own imagination.
