A event held at SouthBank on Sunday 29th June. The event starts at 18:30.
Synopsis :
Patrick is a tenacious lawyer specializing in environmental law. France is a schoolteacher who becomes an activist after her husband develops cancer from exposure to a pesticide. Mathias is an ambitious lobbyist working for an international chemical corporation. The paths of these characters collide as the lives of thousands are affected by a tragic act that sparks a powerful movement while the corporation fights to prevent the truth from being revealed.
A political drama or an ecological thriller based on the true story of the Monsanto Papers.
What's in it for you ?
Once again, audiences are treated to outstanding French performances as they explore two contrasting worlds—one highlighting the experiences of those harmed by the product, and the other revealing the human side of lobbyists. The film presents both perspectives: the citizen-led movement standing up for justice and the powerful political and corporate forces with vested interests. Every facet of the struggle is uncovered.
Inspired by true events, this film resonates with the revelations from the Monsanto Papers, which were released in 2018. These documents exposed Monsanto’s strategic efforts to continue selling Roundup and maximize profits despite the controversies surrounding it.
Do stay to have a discussion about the film after the screening! ( usually 30min )
If you've got a smidge of French skills, you are in for a treat! Engage in dynamic movie discussions with Marie from Learnfrenchwithmissmarie.com, who will make sure you pick up new words and phrases along the way!
DRINKS will be available at the bar.
CREPES will also be available (cash only)
Looking forward to see you !
Entry requirements: no age restrictions
