With a pair of domestic poster releases, a possible Venice/Telluride/TIFF selection for Café De Flore [09.26 in Quebec] certainly appears to be in the cards. Jean-Marc Vallée whose fourth feature, the 2005 breakout film C.R.A.Z.Y. helped anchor interest from abroad and led to The Young Victoria, is most likely in the mixing stages with this Quebec-France co-production, which is only his second feature writing credit. Inspired by the legendary Parisian hang-out. The film follows two story lines — one in the 1960s, one in the present — linked by a famous song. This sees a male Montreal DJ (Parent) and woman. And between a mother and her son with Down’s syndrome.. Two people from two different eras who live two extraordinary moments of passion that shake their lives.
Featured in the posters below we have Gaspé derived singer Kevin Parent who plays the lead in what will be the contemporary set portion of the film, and in the poster below that one we find Vanessa Paradis, who plays the lead in the 1960’s timeline. What we can assure you is that the film will be rich soundtrack, and the extra pair of hands/arms in the one-sheets will emphasize the film’s focal point: intimacy between family/strangers.
