Swagger
Sessions
Sunday, 9 April 2017 | 15:00 | La Maison du Cinéma |
Light on the French emerging cinema
In collaboration with UniFrance and the cultural services of the Embassy of France in NY and with the support of the Embassy of France in Canada
Swagger takes us into the minds of eleven children and adolescents with amazing personalities, who are growing up within some of France’s most underprivileged housing projects. The film shows us the world through their singular and unexpected gazes, their funny and incisive thoughts. By using a mosaic of encounters and by mixing genres, even musicals and science fiction, Swagger gives life to the words and fantasies of these kids from Aulnay and Sevran. Because, despite the difficulties of their lives, they have dreams and ambitions. And no one can take this away from them.
