Paris, 13th District
Les Olympiades, Paris 13e
International Panorama:
Jacques Audiard reinvents his own cinema with this fresh story of lovers inter-twined in today’s Paris.
Les Olympiades, Paris 13e
A story about four young people looking for love, or eluding it, in a contemporary, multi-ethnic, digitally connected metropolis. Émilie meets Camille who is attracted to Nora, who crosses paths with Amber. Three girls and a boy - friends, sometimes lovers and often both.
The film is Audiard’s first since 2012 ‘Rust and Bone’ to adapt a predominantly female perspective.
The setting is the 13th arrondissement in south-east Paris. Paris is more than just a setting here, but absolutely defines the way that the characters live and connect, the rhythms and pressures of their existence.
A vibrant and uplifting take on modern love and Paris, as four characters cross paths and destiny.
