WE'LL END UP TOGETHER (2020)

Starring François Cluzet, Marion Cotillard, Gilles Lellouche, Laurent Lafitte, Benoît Magimel, Pascale Arbillot, Valérie Bonneton, José Garcia, Joël Dupuch and Clémentine Baert. Directed by Guillaume Canet.

It’s been years since middle-aged restaurateur Max has received his friends at his gorgeous summer house in the chic beach community of Cap Ferret. The group have traditionally reconnected there for his birthday, but since things didn’t exactly go as planned last time, they haven’t seen much of one another. It turns out Max is divorcing and his villa is up for sale, so when pals Marie, Vincent, now-famous actor Eric and his hapless buddy-turned-assistant Antoine arrive unannounced to celebrate a significant milestone, it’s not necessarily a welcome surprise.

SUBMERGENCE (2018)

Starring James McAvoy, Alicia Vikander, Alexander Siddig, Celyn Jones, Audrey Quoturi, Harvey Friedman, Alex Hafner, Clémentine Baert, Adam Quintero and Karim Wallet. Directed by Wim Wenders.

A love story that takes us into the extremely different worlds of our two protagonists, Danielle Flinders and James More. They meet by chance in a remote hotel in Normandy where they both prepare for a dangerous mission. They fall in love almost against their will, but soon recognise in each other the love of their lives. When they have to separate, we find out that James works for the British Secret Service. He’s involved in a mission in Somalia to track down a source for suicide bombers infiltrating Europe. Danielle ‘Danny’ Flinders is a bio-mathematician working on a deep sea diving project to support her theory about the origin of life on our planet. Soon, they are worlds apart. James is taken hostage by Jihadist fighters and has no way of contacting Danny, and she has to go down to the bottom of the ocean in her submersible, not even knowing if James is still alive...
