To close this year's French Film Week, we are screening one of our absolute favorite films of the 2024 edition in our last Cinéclub of the year. Le Temps d'aimer by Katell Quillévéré, is carried by two of the most important French actors of the moment, Anaïs Demoustier and Vincent Lacoste, who bring to life an unusual and harrowing love story in post-war France, inspired by the story of the director's grandparents.
1947: Madeleine, a waitress in a hotel restaurant and single mother of a little boy, meets François, a rich and educated student, on a beach in Brittany. There is a perfect understanding between them. But Le Temps d'aimer is in reality much more than just a love story. The marriage between Madeleine and François, in addition to the feelings he and she have for each other, actually serves as a social cover to conceal the bisexuality of one and the relationship of the other with a German soldier.
