Le père de mes enfants
The Father of My Children
Mia Hansen-Løve
2009 / 110 min.

FILM/VIDEO: Only 30 years old, the prodigiously talented writer-director Mia Hansen-Løve follows her assured 2007 debut, Tout est pardonné (All Is Forgiven), about a drug-addicted dad, with an even more wrenching look at another troubled, charismatic patriarch, inspired by the life and death of French film producer Humbert Balsan.

This event is part of The Tournées Festival, the weekly series of new French films on campus.

Support for the Tournées Festival is provided by:

• The French Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs / The Centre National de la Cinématographie
