The Miami Film Festival lifts the veil on the 2020 programming. An essential event for Miami movie buffs, the 37th edition will be held from Friday March 6 to Sunday March 15 in several cinemas in the city. Ten days of festivities during which more than 125 independent films will be screened, coming from around thirty countries, including some French productions.
Followers of the seventh French art will thus be able to appreciate "A divan in Tunis" (Friday March 6 at 7:35 pm and Sunday March 8 at 9:45 pm), the first feature film by Franco-Tunisian director Manele Labidi. This dramatic comedy, which features French-Iranian actress Golshifteh Farahani in the guise of a Parisian psychologist wishing to set up her practice in the suburbs of Tunis, highlights a country divided between traditions and modernity.
With two César nominations, "Only the Beasts" is also on the bill for this cinematographic event (Friday March 6 at 10pm and Sunday March 15 at 10pm). Adapted from the eponymous novel by Colin Niel, this feature film by Dominik Moll, director of "Harry, a friend who wishes you well", explores the solitude of beings in the age of globalization against a backdrop of mysterious murder.
French actress Eva Green replies to American Matt Dillon in "Proxima" (Saturday March 7 at 5:15 pm and Sunday March 15 at 9:45 pm). This drama, directed by Parisian Alice Winocour, portrays an astronaut who is about to leave for a long-term mission in space, thus leading to separation from her nine-year-old daughter.
The Miami Film Festival will also present the animated short film "Sororelle" (Saturday March 7 at 7pm and Tuesday March 12 at 10pm) by Frédéric Even and Louise Mercadier which tells the story of three sisters facing a cataclysm.
Finally, Miami movie buffs will also be able to preview “Resistance” (Sunday March 8 at 7pm), a biographical film by Jonathan Jakubowicz on the famous French mime Marcel Marceau, who for several decades embodied the melancholic clown Bip, after being part of the resistance during World War II.
