About the event
Directed by Catherine Breillat, Last Summer follows Anne, a brilliant lawyer, who lives in perfect harmony with her husband Pierre and their young daughters in Paris. One day, Theo, 17, Pierre’s son from a previous marriage, moves in with them. Anne is troubled by Theo and gradually engages in a passionate relationship with him, putting her career and family life in danger.
Nominated for Palme d’Or at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, the New York Times said it's “thoroughly Engrossing…few directors get as deeply under the skin as Catherine Breillat." Variety said, “The comeback we’ve been wanting from Breillat: a film… that confronts the complicated, impulsive and all-too-often-regrettable choices humans make when desire takes control.”
