The Innocent - AFD Movie Night at Deckchair Cinema

The Innocent - AFD Movie Night

WED 31 MAY

Coming Soon to
Deckchair Cinema

99 mins | Rated M

Starring Roschdy Zem, Anouk Grinberg, Louis Garrel, Manda Touré, Léa Wiazemsky, Yanisse Kebbab, Jean-Claude Pautot, Florent Masarin


The Alliance Française de Darwin are bringing cheese and wine to sell for this screening. AFD Members receive discounted entry tonight.

Familial tensions, criminal hijinks and unexpected romance collide in the uproariously entertaining new comedy from the multi-talented Louis Garrel (A Faithful Man), about the misguided attempts of a dedicated son who, in trying to protect his mother, finds himself embroiled in an elaborate heist.

Lyon, present day. When widowed marine biologist Abel (Garrel) learns that his impulsive mum Sylvie (Anouk Grinberg) is once again re-marrying – this time to an inmate she met whilst teaching theatre in prison – he’s much more than uncomfortable. Doubting that convicted burglar Michel (Roschdy Zem) is capable of turning over a new leaf, Abel’s protective streak kicks in, and so with the help of his best friend Clémence (a sensational Noémie Merlant), he begins tailing his new stepfather’s movements. Their amateur sleuthing is quickly uncovered by Michel and triggers an unlikely – and bold - business proposition for them both…

Joyfully paying homage to the great crime capers of the French New Wave, and partly inspired by events from his own life, Garrel’s witty and beautifully constructed film is a delirious mix of comedy, romance, suspense and action, with several twists too good to spoil. Selected as the special Gala Screening to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, where it drew a thunderously positive response, this hilarious, quintessentially French comedy aims to please – and does so effortlessly.
