LA TOUR DE GLACE

In the organizer's words:

German title: HEART OF ICE

In the 1970s, 16-year-old Jeanne escapes from a children's home in the mountains, attracted by the alluring lights of the town in the valley. Her search for freedom leads her to a film studio where the movie The Snow Queen, starring the mysterious Cristina, is being shot. A mysterious connection develops between Jeanne and Cristina, drawing Jeanne deeper and deeper into the world of the movie and increasing her obsession with the realm of the Snow Queen. Jeanne loses herself in a confusing game of magic and illusion, in which set and screen become indistinguishable. But the Snow Queen demands a sacrifice...
Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, award-winning French director Lucile Hadžihalilović tells a hypnotic coming-of-age story between dream and reality.

Années 1970. Jeanne fugue de son foyer de haute montagne pour rejoindre la ville. Dans le studio où elle s'est réfugiée, la jeune fille tombe sombe sous le charme de Cristina, l'énigmatique star du film La Reine des Neiges, son conte préféré. A troubled relationship is established between the actress and the young girl, before the piège ne se referme... Un film envoûtant au casting brillant porté, entre autres, par Marion Cotillard, Clara Pacini, August Diehl et Gaspar Noé.
