Enormous

A radiant romantic comedy that sees an eccentric young woman (Lolita Chammah) who dreads being alone, left all by herself in the remote countryside. She latches onto a scruffy recluse (Benjamin Biolay), living in a tiny shed with his adorable dog, disrupting both his peaceful routines and her notions of solitude.

US Premiere

7PM screening followed by a Q&A with Sophie Letourneur

In Letourneur’s brand new film, the family from Voyages en Italie return to Italy, but this time Sardinia is the destination and the couple’s young son and Sophie’s preteen daughter from a previous relationship have come along for the ride. Flowing like a real vacation would, the film allows viewers to savor life’s small, ultra-relatable moments.

NY Premiere

Introduced by Sophie Letourneur

Burnt-out parents Jean-Fi and Sophie (singer Philippe Katerine and Letourneur) escape to Sicily, trying to reclaim their lives and reignite a spark, but find it’s not so easy to leave your baggage behind. What transpires is a compulsively watchable yet highly unglorified getaway full of neuroses and awkward humor.

Letourneur’s semi-autobiographical debut feature provides a spirited peek into the daily activities of a group of twentysomethings as they drink and smoke, hook up and break up, bond and bicker, and hang out at an apartment nicknamed “the ranch” shared by a couple of the girls.

A snappy, self-effacing film following the escapades of three friends—Sophie Letourneur, Carole Le Page, and Camille Genaud, all playing caricatured versions of themselves on the prowl at the Locarno Film Festival, navigating lame parties, exes, new love interests, and, most humiliating, the director’s full-blown obsession with the actor Louis Garrel.
