CATHERINE DENEUVE TAKES AN UNFORGETTABLE JOURNEY

Starting from Friday 18th September, Catherine Deneuve’s new film Je Veux Voir will open exclusively at the Cine Lumiere, London.

French icon Catherine Deneuve has starred in some of the best known and highly regarded French films of all time but Je Veux Voir (I Want To See) sees her take on a different role, playing herself journeying through war-torn Lebanon, guided by the charismatic actor Rabih Mroué. The initial frostiness between the two actors thaws and with time on the road their friendship grows, as the intrepid excursion becomes an unpredictable, unexpected adventure.
 
Part tour, part homage to the magnificent Deneuve, Je Veux Voir is the latest film to be directed by Lebanese artists Joana Hadjithomas & Khalil Joreige addressing the harsh realities of conflict in the Middle East with a cinematic sensibility.
 

Opens from Friday at the Cine Lumiere. Box Office:  020 7073 1350
