Laetitia Dosch is the protagonist of Jeune Femme.
Spazju Kreattiv is today screening the film Jeune Femme, also known as Montparnasse Bienvenue, a French drama film directed by Léonor Sérraille.
Following in the footsteps of Frances Ha and Fleabag, the film is a sometimes heart-breaking, often hilarious and always relatable nod to the chaos and candour of modern life.
Neurotic and manic, bold and magnetic, Paula (Laetitia Dosch) is a muddle of contradictions. Fresh from an unceremonious dumping by her boyfriend of 10 years, she finds herself wandering the streets of Paris – jobless, homeless and single – with no idea of what life holds for her next.
At 31 years old, with little to show for it but a kidnapped cat and a sense of adventure, she sets out to reinvent herself – new job, new friends, new life – and finds that these things never come easily.
Jeune Femme picked up the coveted Camera d’Or prize for best first feature at the Cannes Film Festival 2017.
Jeune Femme will be screened today at 8.30pm, at St James Cavalier, Valletta. For tickets, visit www.kreattivita.org.
