Event Description
As the director behind such past fest faves as MONSIEUR LAZHAR (the Oscar-nominated drama that also won our People’s Choice audience award back at KCFF12), Philippe Falardeau has always filled his movies with an abundance of warmth, humour, and humanity, and the Quebecois filmmaker’s latest is no exception. Adapted from Alain Farah’s semi-autobiographical novel Mille Secret Milles Dangers, the film takes an unconventional approach to portraying all the ups and downs that are part of a wedding day. As the story jumps back and forth in time, revealing more about events as they recur, viewers come to understand all the reasons that the groom in question -- Alain (Neil Elias), a high-strung writer – has to be feeling anxious. But like the central event, Falardeau’s film is buoyed by a high-spirited energy and many moments that feel instantly relatable and wholly authentic.
