French Cinema Matineé - Petite Maman
–
8 September, 2025
From director Céline Sciamma, Petit Maman is a sublime modern fairytale about the quiet wonder of mother-daughter relationships. After the death of her beloved grandmother, eight year old Nelly meets a mysterious friend in the woods. Together they embark on a fantastical journey of discovery which helps Nelly come to terms with this newfound loss.
A favourite of the 2021 Berlin Film Festival, Sciama's new masterwork examines childhood, memory and loss with a typically delicate touch, elegantly weaved together into an enchanting and moving depiction of love and acceptance.
Run time 1 hour 12 minutes
