Film Release

I Saw Ben Barka Get Killed

From 11/10/2006 at 08:00 to 02/11/2006 at 08:00

I Saw Ben Barka Get Killed

a film by Serge Le Péron

I saw Ben Barka get killed examines a French political scandal of 1965 in which the Moroccan militant leader and anti-colonialist Mehdi Ben Barka disappeared after being intercepted by police in Paris. Ben Barka's kidnapping and probable murder is shown in a mixture of historical fact and imaginative speculation. Serge Le Péron recreates the background to Mehdi Ben Barka's abduction, with underworld figure Georges Figon (Charles Berling), an ex-convict from a bourgeois background, who narrates - Sunset Boulevard style - from the floor of the apartment where he supposedly killed himself. The entire cast give wonderfully believable performances (Jean-Pierre Léaud as Georges Franju and Josiane Balasko as Marguerite Duras). All this serves to provide a breathtaking thriller with a wealth of subplots and characters.

Preview Screening on Wed 11 Oct, followed by a Q&A with Serge Le Péron.
